The garment is crocheted in one piece, from the bottom up. The only seam is at the top of the hood and is done while crocheting the last row, using the loop join method.

The hood can be worn either up or down.

The ideal yarn for this project is Merino in
fingering weight. Acrylic yarn meant to
imitate wool will also work. Yarn without any
elasticity such as cotton will not yield the
same result and should be avoided.
I used 300g Colourspun Merino Sock.
