The Polka Dot Hoodie is designed to be a cosy, warm and comfy piece to throw on with jeans and a tee when the temperature drops. The contrast trim and chunky bobbles keep it looking fun and modern, while the hood and fit are practical and stylish.

This hooded cardigan is constructed seamlessly from hem to underarms, and the sleeves are knitted seamlessly in the round. A step-by-step photo tutorial is included for working the contrast bobble stitch.

The Polka Dot Hoodie is an oversized fit. You may wish to knit a smaller size for a closer fit.
