Woodland Sunrise Cropped Hoodie

Download pdf from Crochet Foundry

The Woodland Sunrise Cropped Hoodie is a lightweight but very warm garment that’s eye-catching and easy to wear. The lace stitch of the body has an easy, meditative feel that is perfect to accompany time spent lost in your own thoughts or in a good audiobook/television programme, while the motifs have a more varied range of stitches to keep your interest and make an excellent portable project to carry with you on the go.
This was inspired by a winter morning’s walk across a local park to take my sons to school. We could see the low winter sun peeping through the trees and a mist across the ground below as the dew evaporated.

This pattern includes sizes XS to 5XL with guidance provided for adaptations to get a custom fit in addition to instructions for a fit in line with standard clothing sizes and ideas for creating a personalised style.
