Crochet TURTLE NECK HOODIE Construction

TURTLE NECK HOODIES are my favorite kinds of HOODED COWLS to make because they work up quickly and they are absolutely beautiful in every color. It looks like it could be complicated, but it’s really simple and never disappoints.

In fact, this TURTLE NECK HOODIE works up so quickly that I bet you could have one of these finished within a few hours. Yes, even if you’re a beginner!

The main body of this HOODIE is created from a RECTANGLE with A HOOD. 

So let me now get started and tell you what you will need in order to crochet this amazing TURTLE NECK HOODIE.

TURTLE NECK HOODIE DIRECTIONS 

When trying to decide on a yarn for this hoodie I knew I wanted something warm and soft. I chose ALIZE SUPERLANA YARN.

For this S/M size you will need:
YARN: ALIZE SUPERLANA, 100g, 570m, 75% acrylic, 25% cotton 
1 - 1,5 ball

For this pattern you will need 5.0 crochet hook.

Size: M / S size - this can easily be adapted to a smaller size or bigger size just by reducing or increasing the number of rows.

PATTERN NOTES:

1) Before you start take a measurement. Chain until you reach the measurement around the head - the neck-warmer should be easily slipped over head.

2) The direction shown are adult woman S/M size, but can be easily converted into bigger size or smaller size – just measure your starting chain around your head, if it fits snuggly then you can use this chain amount for your size.

3) A Ch 1, ch2 at beg of the row DOESN'T count as hdc throughout

4) There are 2 parts of this project:
A)        NeckWarmer 
B)        Hood

This pattern can easily adapt to a smaller size or bigger size just by reducing or increasing the number of ch and rows for the hood and as well as making less or more chains for the cowl.

There are 2 parts = 2 rectangles: 

img_9732.jpeg

This Hoodies is made of 2 panels (crocheted as a one part) – one is for the neckwarmer and one is for the hood.

PART A) NECKWARMER / TURTLE NECK - this is a rectangle
PART B) HOOD - this is a rectangle as well, we add the hood on this NECKWARMER rectangle.

5) NECKWARMER'S rounds start with CH 3 = 1 DC

6) NECKWARMER is worked in joining rounds with right side facing at all times

7) Joining rounds - part A is worked in joining rounds, which means that you will be joining the last stitch of the round to the first one with a slip stitch and than chaining 3 before continuing with the next round. 

8) The direction shown are for S/M size but can be easily converted into bigger size or smaller size – just add more or less rows.

Special stitches used: hdc in back loop only - the back loop is hidden under the front loop.

Special stitches used: front post double crochet (fpdc) and front post triple crochet (fptr)

Front and back post crochet stitches are used to create wonderful texture in crochet. Instead of making your stitch through the loops at the top of the stitch, you make it around the stitch. Everything else stays the same. The most challenging things about crochet post stitches are knowing where and how to insert the hook. There are front post stitches and back post stitches.

For front post double crochet stitches (fpdc): yarn over, insert your hook from front to back then from back to front around post of stitch indicated, yarn over, pull through stitch, then finish your double crochet as normal, yarn over, pull through 2 lps, yarn over, pull through last 2 lps
