New Hooded Crochet Scarf

I've been looking for new patterns for my granddaughter, Elise, for a scarf and a hat.  It's so cold in the winter when they go to school, I wanted to keep her warm and toasty.  When I found this hooded scarf on AllFreeCrochet, I loved it.  A scarf and hat in one ~ 

Aesthetic Hooded Scarf Pattern



So I made this lovely hooded scarf for our lovely little granddaughter, in her school colors so it would match her uniform.



Here she is modeling it for us!


Elise is such a lovely young lady!  This color looks so pretty on her, too.  The only thing she asked for was a little fringe, so I did add that to the ends and it's packed up and ready to mail back to her tomorrow. 

While the pattern looks like it would be difficult, it isn't at all.  Moslty double crochet, and half double crochet, with the ridges on the hood all done after the hood is completed (before the scarf is started on the last row) in a single crochet added to the stitches exposed.  Fun and easy!  Fringe wasn't part of the original pattern, but so easy to add to any scarf!

Thanks for taking a peak.  Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.  We're supposed to get some rain here Tuesday, and boy does California need it, again.  They say it's going to be a very wet spring this year.  I sure hope so, as winter didn't bring much at all!

Blessings,
Donna

  3. Donna, That is just darling. Don't you love it when you can make something that the kids will really love and enjoy wearing? I have never learned to crochet and knit...sad but true. I should put that on my list of "to do" things. xo Diana

  8. They are so lovely!! And yes, very needed here in the cold part of the US. Also, if she is like my boys who lose their hat, gloves or scarf 10 times a school year, it is so much harder to lose!!!
