Well I have finally picked up the crochet hook again.
Remember my learn to crochet journey that I started just last winter?
I’m finding that I still love it and I am even teaching a few Beginner Crochet classes for our local recreation department this fall. I can’t wait to share my love for crochet with my students! Today I am sharing this fun hooded scarf crochet pattern that I made…
We’ve decided as a family to do a home-made Christmas this year and this is one of the gifts that will be going to a special little girl. Isaiah had fun modelling it for me though ;)
I made it to fit a four year old but you could easily increase the size of the hood and lengthen the scarf to make it larger.
The striped look was created by using three different coloured balls of yarn. I simply alternated the yarn every few rows. Each colour on the hood is three rows of double crochet, then the scarf went six rows of double crochet and finally eight rows of double crochet.
You can find more detailed patterns for purchase all over the web. I often start with a pattern then modify it and simplify it to suit my needs.
I love that this has pockets and is an all-in-one hood, scarf and mittens. No worries that you are going to loose a piece to the set which is a huge bonus when you have little kids.
Here is my hooded scarf crochet pattern:
dc – double crochet
st – stitch
sc- single crochet
ch – chain
The hood
1: chain 24
2: dc 24, chain 1
3: dc 24 down the other side of the chain, ch 1, turn
4-6: dc 48, ch 1, turn
7: dc 22, two dc into the next four stitches, dc 22, ch 1, turn
8-21: dc 52, ch 1, turn
The scarf:
You will do these next rounds twice, once on either side of the hood.
Attach yarn to front, bottom corner of hood. Ch 1.
22-72: dc 20, ch 1, turn
Repeat on the other side of the hood.
Fold the bottom eight rows at the end of the scarf up then single crochet around your entire project twice.
This pattern would be pretty cute for boys too.
Maybe with grey yarn and little black sculls on the pockets???
Too cute!

Hi ladies!
Try chaining two after each row instead of just one. Hopefully that helps with the curling?

What size of needle do you use?
I believe that it was a 6.00mm – I usually use the size that is recommended on my spool of yarn. Hope that helps!
On rounds 4 through 6, do you mean to double crochet 24 on each side, or 48 double crochets on one side?
This is a very old pattern so I’m sorry, I can’t answer that. I will try to re-work it in the new year <3
I did 48 around
“Fold the bottom eight stitches at the end of the scarf up then single crochet around your entire project twice.”
Do you mean “fold the bottom eight ROWS” (not stitches?)
Yes! Thank you for catching that <3
Hi, I love this. I know it’s for a 4 year old but can you tell me roughly how many inches it is when hoodie is folded in half as I’m using a different yarn to a rough measurement would be very helpful, thank you.
Hi Wendy! I would say approx 6″ across :) Happy crocheting!
