Two Accessories in One: 10 Hooded Scarf Knitting Patterns

Hooded Scarf Knitting Patterns

Stay cozy this winter with a two-in-one hooded scarf knitting pattern accessory that does double duty as both a scarf and a hat.

Cold weather requires that you carry so much stuff with you: hat, gloves, coat, scarf, ear warmers and maybe even an extra layer just in case. Perhaps that’s why we’re always losing so many of our winter accessories!

One way to reduce all that clutter? A hooded scarf knitting pattern does double-duty, combining the warmth of a hat or hood with a scarf in one convenient accessory. You don’t have to wear the hood all the time, but you won’t have to dig through your bag to find a hat when your ears and head feel the freeze!

Knit one of these awesome two-accessories-in-one hooded scarf knitting patterns from our Craftsy designers and control the clutter of winter accessories! (P.S. The hooded scarves work up quickly, so they make great gifts!)

Isaure Hood Knitting Pattern

1. Isaure Hood

This hood is clearly fairy tale-inspired. The cable wraps around both the scarf and the front of the hood, unifying the entire design. Use a light-colored yarn if you really want to highlight the twists and turns of that beautiful cable.

2. Reversible, Cabled Hooded Scarf

You can knit this hooded scarf up over a weekend, since it uses bulky-weight yarn that knits up quickly. There are only three cables in the entire scarf, so it’s a great starter project for beginners who want to dip their toes into cables slowly.

3. Super Easy Kitten Hooded Scarf

Kids only have to keep up with one accessory when you knit up this cute hooded kitten scarf. You can omit the ears and bow, if you’d like. Because of the customization options, you could easily turn this into a scarf for a boy, too. (Don’t be surprised if he skips the bow and wants to keep the ears.)

Hooded Scarf Chunky Hood Knitting Pattern

5. Hooded Scarf Chunky Hood

This hooded scarf is proof that the buttons can make all the difference when it comes to style. I love the toggles used in the sample above, but you could also go for something you already have in your button stash. The rib stitches used on the hood are great for giving you just the right amount of stretch.

7. Ingrid Hooded Scarf

The texture of these cables gives the hood a nice durability that keeps you warm and keeps the hood on your head without slipping off. If you’ve never knit cables before, this is a great way to practice. Just be sure you swatch the cables a few times before diving into the actual project.

8. Lace & Cable Hooded Scarf

Experience in lace knitting and cables is helpful for completing this elegant hooded scarf. The cables that twist around your face also twist right down the scarf. There’s even a little twist on both sides of the scarf. Follow a chart or written instructions — your choice!

Roar! Cozy meets cute in this loop stitched hood. Knitters will need to know some basic crochet to complete the pattern. The ears of the lion are stuffed to make sure they stand tall without becoming floppy.

10. Lacy Hooded Scarf

The seam on the hood of this pattern is not just there to make the pattern easier; it also creates a beautiful seam down the back that enhances the design. Beginners should pay attention to the needle type recommendation, since knitting with a circular needle makes it easier to hold the weight of the scarf.
