This PDF crochet pattern consists of illustrated pattern for crocheting hoodie "Casual" for adults (size XS to XXL) and children (size 2 y. - 13 y.) with hood and two-coloured pattern from the bottom (shoulder yoke with relief pattern). This hoodie is quite easy to crochet, so the pattern is also suitable for beginners with previous knowledge, but not suitable as a first crochet project.

Attention! The hoody is crocheted partially (only the cuffs) with the sl st. Crocheting with the sl st, inserted either in the back loops only or in the front loops only of the previous row, requires a little practice. Before you start crocheting, practice crocheting with an old thick wool (wool scraps). After a few practices, crochet with sl st will work out very quickly. Otherwise, crochet very loosely, take the crochet hook 0.5 to 1 size larger than recommended for your wool. I have also shown how to crochet the sl st in the video.

Important! Please do not make any strings in the neck area for small children, but crochet the hood with a few rows of sc.
