This PDF crochet pattern consists of illustrated tutorial for crocheting a hoodie for adults (sizes XS to XXL) and children (sizes 2 y. - 11 y.) with hood and kangaroo pockets (cuffs look like knitted). The pattern describe two variations of button and buttonhole placket (hood with tube openings and without).

The jacket is very cosy. It is a perfect garment for evening walks, playing, romping etc. It is also perfect for sports activities. It can be crocheted for both winter and summer (depending on the wool) and is a unisex raglan jacket (so suitable for boys and girls, for women and men).

For the cuff I made a video with the explanation. The video was uploaded here at CP as an additional file to the PDF file. With this video, crocheting the cuff is much quicker and easier.

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