Here is a fun new tutorial for you! I made this at the request of my bf and had a blast figuring out how to do it! Thanks for watching and don't forget to tag me @itsjennbrown on instagram if you make this for yourself :D
Written Pattern
Crochet Hoodie
Unisex size M (Body 23x29.5 in and arms 28x23 in)
Approx. 1640 yards or 6.5 skeins med weight yarn, H/5mm hook
Back Panel
1. Chain 85 + 2 for turning chain
2. Half double crochet (HDC) down the row
3. Repeat until you have 44 rows
Front Panel
1. Chain 85 + 2 for turning chain
2. HDC down the row
3. Repeat until you have 22 rows
4. Only 52 HDC in the next row
5. After the 52 HDC, chain 33 + 2 for turning chain
6. HDC down the chain and continue down the row to bring you back to 85
7. HDC 22 more rows of 85
* This makes a half-row cut-out in the front of your hoodie to create the Henley look
Join Back and Front
1. Slip stitch (SS) 52 stitches up each side
2. SS 14 rows in for each shoulder
Sleeves
1. SS to join new loop at bottom of arm hole
2. Chain 66 + 2 for turning chain
3. HDC down row
4. To join to the arm hole, skip one arm hole chain and SS into the next chain
5. SS into the next 2 arm hole chains to start the next row
6. HDC down the row
7. Chain 1 and turn, make *40-50 single crochet (SC) then resume HDC to end of row
* This variation in SC count keeps there from being a visible seam where you switch from SC to HDC
8. Repeat these 3 rows around the sleeve, doing 40-50 SC at the end of the sleeve every 3rd row
9. SS the two ends together to join and repeat for the other sleeve
Cuffs and Hem
1. OPT. SC around the edge of the sleeve and SS to join
2. Chain 10 + 1 for turning chain
3. SC down the row and join to sleeve with a SS
4. SS in next chain to start new row
5. SC in back loops to create ribbing to end of row
6. Repeat around the sleeve and SS the ends together
7. Repeat for other sleeve and the hoodie hem
Hood
1. Chain 50 + 2 for turning chain
2. HDC down row and repeat until you have 10 rows
3. Crochet 9 more rows, decreasing each by 2
* Do this by HDC across 2 stitches instead of 1, sometimes called HDC together. This makes 4 stitches into 2
4. When you have a total of 19 rows, cut off yarn and repeat these steps for 2 halves of the hood
5. SS up the curved sides to join
Hood Assembly and Drawstring
1. Line up the center of the hood to the center of neckline and SS together, making sure the hood is flipped down and the seam is facing up
2. Flip the hoodie right-side-out
3. Starting at the left (front-facing) side of the V-neck, make a row of double crochet (DC) all the way up the neck and hood and down the other side of the V
4. Starting 4-6 stitches from the neck/hood seam, DC on the back side of the DC row you just did
* We’re making a small sleeve for the drawstring to run through. The goal is 2 rows of DC coming from the same set of chains. It helps to crochet the new DC into the loops between the previous DC
5. Make the drawstring. Chain 180 and SS down the chain. Tie off
6. Lay the drawstring in the valley of the DC rows
7. SS the tops of the DC rows together around the drawstring, making the closed sleeve
* You should be able to slide the drawstring through the sleeve pretty easily without worrying about it sliding out
Pocket
1. Row 1: chain 12 + 2 for turning chain. HDC down row
2. Row 2-4: HDC and increase 1 each time (row 4 should have 15 HDC)
3. Row 5-6: HDC and increase 2 each time (row 6 should have 19 HDC)
4. Row 7: HDC and increase 4 (23 HDC)
5. Row 8: HDC and increase 8 (31 HDC)
6. Repeat last row 12 more times for 13 rows with 31 HDC each
7. Repeat rows 7-1, decreasing each time
8. To add trim to the curved sides, SC up each side to even it out
9. Chain 3 + 1 and SC down the row
10. SS to join pocket, SS in next chain to start a new row
11. Back loop SC for ribbing and repeat to top of pocket
* You may need to skip a stitch occasionally if it starts to get wavy
12. Repeat on other side
13. Line up pocket with center of hoodie and along the top of the ribbed hem
14. Use a large needle and yarn to sew the pocket on
Buttons
1. Find buttons that will easily fit through the DC row
2. Hand sew on
