About the Pattern This pattern was written for next to skin wear, and will have a fitted look to the completed garment. The hood is designed to drape over the head, in more of a “Ridinghood” style.
This pattern includes instructions for both a hooded, and hoodless version, as well as collar, and cuff option, and is written in sizes from 6-12 months, up to a 4-6T.
I have rated this pattern at an intermediate level, and some understanding of basic crochet will be required. I have included a couple photo tutorials, and am always available for pattern support through Email. Should you be more of a beginning knitter, and up to the challenge of learning some new techniques, try it! I'll be here for you! ;)
