Snood Instructions
Foundation Chain
Ch 39. Sl st into 1st ch to join. Make sure that your ring of chains isn’t twisted!
*Try on the ring to make sure that your snood will fit over your head. If it’s too small, undo the sl st, add more chains and then sl st to join.
Round 1
Ch 1, HDC in each st around, sl st to join, turn.
<39>
Round 2
Ch 1, BL HDC in each st around, sl st to join, turn.
<39>
Repeat Round 2 until Round 10.
Fasten off. Weave in all of your ends.
*Alteration suggestion: If you’d like your snood to loop around your head, I suggest chaining 100-110 chains and repeating the steps above until Round 5 or 6. Please keep in mind that this will require an extra 1-2 skeins of yarn.
