This project was designed by knitisfun.

My little Red Riding Hood »

Instructions

It’s a rather easy pattern. I have explained among others the cable stitches with many pictures to enable any ‘beginner in cable’ to knit it.
The instructions (9 pages) include the full detailed chart (row by row) of the hoodie and written instructions.

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Clothing

For: Children

Style: Cute, Romantic, Casual, Retro / Vintage


Materials

yarn circular needles

What was your inspiration?

My little girl who discovered at school the story of the Red Riding Hood! The hoodie should be red of course and should be very warm to face chilly mornings.

What are you most proud of?

I intentionally use simple stitches and simples cables and well I find the result lovely!!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The hoodie is patterned for a girl of 6-8 years so don't hesitate to go down in needle size for younger children.

Thank you, I see that you have pretty much done the upsizing in your Azure hood, I am about to order that pattern. I love your patterns, they are easy to follow for a fairly new knitter like me.

I love this hood and would like to adapt it for an adult, maybe a bit less pointy. Hope you'll consider making a pattern like that...

Thank you so much for your interest! I will think about an adaptation for adults. One easy way is to change size needles and make less increases to shape the corner.

I'm speechless. The hood is gorgeous, but your daughter is beyond precious! Congratulations on making such "works of art"... the Knitted hood and, most of all, your daughter. She has the most perfect lips!
