Elwy hood is warm, comfortable and universal. It is one of those garments which you can wear on the go to protect you from cold and wind. Roomy enough for long hair, the Elwy hood is designed with big comfortable cowl for extra warmth around neck and shoulders area.
Elwy Hood is knitted seamlessly in two steps starting with cowl part and finishing with hood itself. Cowl part is knitted top down, and then the stitches picked up along neck edge for the hood. German short rows used around neck shaping in order to make the comfortable fit around neck and face. Double neckband hides neck edge for neat result and professional look.
The hood can be worn both wrong and right sides outside due to its construction and finishing.
The pattern calls for Aran weight yarn and it is written for both children and adult. Pattern has a photo tutorial for transition from cowl to hood.
Knitting pattern for Elwy hood is available from Ravelry and Lovecrafts.
