PATTERN NOTES
This hood is knit from the bottom up. The neck section is first worked in the round in Fisherman’s Rib. Then, stitches are separated at the center front and the hood is worked flat with a built-in I-Cord edge. The top of the hood is formed by grafting each half of the stitches together. In this pattern, work all slipped stitches purlwise.

The neck is worked with yarn A. Yarns A and B are held together as one for the main part of the hood, with the built-in I-cord worked with just yarn A.
