How to Crochet a Hooded Scarf Pattern
A hooded scarf gives you added warmth in one piece. Wear it as a combination hat and scarf and you will always have the accessories you need when the winter winds start to blow. Crochet a hooded scarf using basic crochet stitches and minimal construction; you can use any combination of hook and yarn as the scarf can be any width or length you desire.

1
Chain enough stitches so that the scarf measures your desired length; a standard size would be 5 to 6 feet long.
-
2
Single crochet in the second chain from the hook and in every chain across. Chain one and turn, then repeat this pattern back and forth in rows until your scarf is the desired width; approximately 6 inches should suffice.

Fasten off your yarn and fold your scarf in half lengthwise to find the center. Measure 10 inches from either side of the center and place a safety pin in the stitches that are 10 inches away from the center.

Attach your yarn with a slip stitch in the stitch you marked on the right side of the center. Chain one and make one single crochet in this stitch and every stitch until you reach the second safety pin. Chain one and turn, single crochet in each of the single crochet stitches you have made. Continue until the hood portion of your scarf measures approximately 12 inches high.

Fasten off and cut your working yarn, leaving a 15-inch tail. Thread this yarn on a large-eye blunt needle and turn the hood inside-out. Whipstitch the open seam at the top of the hood from the front of it to the point at the top of the head. Turn the hood right-side out, weave in all remaining loose ends, and wear your new hooded scarf.
