Pattern Description:

Inspired by an old-fashioned soda shoppe, this hood features a lovely "waffle cone" texture along the borders, while the middle is sprinkled all over with little "candy dots". The loose fit guarantees your hair stays perfectly bouncy, while the luscious silk and wool blend ensures your ears stay properly warm!

This hoodlet is worked seamlessly from the top down through the clever use of Judy?s Magic Cast On, and calls for a single skein of fingering weight yarn knit doubled on large needles.
