Pattern not included - you must purchase the pattern on Ravelry here. 

Pattern available in English. 

The Winter Hood is a warm and practical combination of a neck warmer and a hood. It is knitted with 1 strand of Heavy Merino and 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout, alternating between flat and in-the-round knitting.

The front and back pieces are worked flat, with ribbed borders. Stitches are then picked up for the hood, and the neck is knitted in the round, before continuing and shaping the rest of the hood flat in stockinette stitch. The top is shaped with the German short row technique and assembled using the grafting stitch (Kitchener stitch). The Winter Hood is finished with a ribbed band around the face.
