Mother Hood is the warm hug you need
when you are unwell. Soft, relaxed, yet
utterly secure. Knit a Mother Hood to keep
you warm when you need a little extra
softness in your life—both in your hands
and when you are finished.

Mother Hood is worked from the bottom up in the
round and flat, seamlessly. After working the neck
section, decreases are worked slowly to create a
relaxed curve over the head. Lastly, stitches are picked
up around the facial opening to create a sturdy edge.
