10 Free Crochet Hoodie Patterns: Direct Links to Original Sources

Hoodie construction varies more than you’d expect: granny square and hexagon motif versions sit alongside a bottom up textured pullover in this list of ten, so the techniques are worth comparing before you commit to one.

The illustrations kept below are original KnotToYarn artwork, included specifically to help tell each construction style apart at a glance. A tapestry needle for seaming covers the shared basics across all of them.
