Hood ribbed Balaclava fake knit

This is a written crochet pattern, which you can download as a PDF immediately after purchasing. Refunds are not possible. The Mellow Hood pattern shows you how to crochet the perfect ribbed hood to keep you warm and cosy at all times It has a drawstring to pull it tight and you can wear it down like a regular hood when you need to. There are detailed step by step instructions including pictures and graphics. The pattern teaches you how to work half double crochet slipstitch in back loop only (and how to do decreases with this stitch) which is creating a beautiful fake ribbed knit look. There's also some instructions on how to adjust the size. The pattern is constructed in a way where you only have to fasten off 4 times and there´s absolutely no sewing (you can choose to slipstitch or sew, whatever you prefer). SKILL LEVEL Required skill level is intermediate, but I think it´s doable for a very ambitious beginner who is willing to do some research. If there are any questions throughout the process, you can message me anytime (contact info is in the pattern).
