In a free interpretation of Marianne Isager’s two patterns (Marocco \u0026amp; Hjælm), I have integrated a zigzag motif into a hood, where the characteristic graphic shape of the diagonal lines forms the basis of the construction. KAREN HOOD is my vision of a new feminine combination of a classic balaclava and the allure of a traditional scarf.''\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"477\" data-end=\"1031\"\u003eKAREN HOOD uses many knitting techniques. It is knitted top-down. The top triangle is knitted first. Stitches are then picked up along two sides, then knitted back and forth with increases and decreases to create the shape and zigzag pattern. At the same time, contrasting stripes are knitted. At the shoulders, the back and fronts are separated to form slits. The hood is finished with an I-cord drawstring at the bottom and a double-knitted button band around the opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1033\" data-end=\"1059\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1033\" data-end=\"1045\"\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e One Size\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1061\" data-end=\"1366\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1061\" data-end=\"1074\"\u003eMEASUREMENTS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1074\" data-end=\"1077\"\u003eHood depth (measured horizontally at the top zigzag band – flat and buttoned): 25 cm\u003cbr data-start=\"1197\" data-end=\"1200\"\u003eHood height (from slit to top of hood): 31 cm\u003cbr data-start=\"1267\" data-end=\"1270\"\u003eCircumference of button band from top of buttonhole to top of button: approx. 60 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1506\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1385\"\u003eMATERIALS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1385\" data-end=\"1388\"\u003eThe amount of yarn indicated is for the Karen Hood.
