Here is a cute hooded scarf with pockets made with half double crochet stitches. The hood section is made first, then the scarf part is joined as you go. The hood part is rounded at the top, so it forms a nice shape around the head.
About this Hooded Scarf
You can crochet this pocket scarf for an older child, teen, or adult. I have sizes listed for those with a height under 5 feet, along with 5 feet to 5 feet 8 inches, and 5 feet 9 inches and over.
As you can see, this looks similar to my crochet pocket shawl, but it is constructed quite differently. In this pattern, I start with the hood part first. Then I work along both sides of the starting chain. This creates a nice rounded section at the top, as opposed to some other hoods that have points at the top.
Scarf with Pockets
Next, you can customize this pattern any way you wish because there are no multiples involved. Want the hood a little taller? Just add a few more chains than what I did. What the scarf a little wider? Add a few more rows instead of the 9 that I made.
Also, I’m using a super bulky weight yarn for this pattern. If you see a [6] on the label, you’ll know that’s the same weight I used. I find this size yarn makes a nice hooded scarf. It’s soft and warm, and the stitches work up very quickly.
The primary stitch in the pattern is half double crochet. All stitches are made using the back loops only. The crochet work looks like it has been knitted instead because of this techniques combined with the squishy texture of the yarn.
