Quilted Crochet Sweater with Hood PDF Pattern

Stop hoarding beautiful scrap yarn.
It's time to turn your stash into high-fashion streetwear.

Welcome to the Scrap Hoodie. Random yarn weights, organized into a runway-ready garment with real luxury drape. It looks like complex geometry. It's built like a quilt: simple crocheted diamonds, joined into blocks, one clear step at a time.

Here's the secret: you never have to figure anything out mid-project. Every step is a clear, logic-based action table that tells you exactly what to do next, and the dimensions are pre-mapped for every size. You follow the grid, and the garment appears.

📏 The Sizing Architecture

You should never have to compromise between your bust measurement and your waist measurement. Because this hoodie is built like a geometric grid, we have pre-mapped the dimensions for every size, allowing you to easily calibrate the length and width to your unique frame.

The Fit Logic: This garment is designed for an oversized, relaxed drape: the kind of effortless streetwear silhouette you'd find in a high-end boutique.

Size	Flat Width	Flat Length*	Worn Length (approx)	Fits Like (Retail)
S	54 cm (21.25")	55 cm (21.5")	~ 60 cm (23.5")	Standard S / M
M	60 cm (23.5")	62 cm (24.5")	~ 67 cm (26.5")	Standard M / L
L	68 cm (26.75")	69 cm (27")	~ 74 cm (29")	Standard L / XL
XL	74 cm (29")	69 cm (27")	~ 74 cm (29")	Standard XL (Closer fit)
2XL	80 cm (31.5")	76 cm (30")	~ 81 cm (32")	Standard 2XL (Classic fit)

*Note: "Worn Length" accounts for gravity stretching the fabric slightly for that perfect drape.

Custom Modifications: Want it cropped? Need a wider hood? The blueprint includes a detailed pattern map that makes adjusting your geometry completely intuitive.

♻️ The Scrap-Buster Formula

This blueprint is entirely yarn-agnostic. Use our free, custom Yarn Weight Calculator (included in your lab prep) to learn exactly how to mix, match, and adjust your tension to hit the perfect gauge. Turn your random yarn bin into a cohesive, highly structured garment without buying a single new skein. This pattern is your official green light to use up all those random beautiful scraps! We designed it to be totally yarn agnostic and a true stash-buster.

Yarn sizing names differ by country. The Yarn Weight Guide lines up US and UK / EU names and hook sizes in one chart.

Want the look without the commitment? The Puffed Granny Spiral Beanie uses the same square-first logic at weekend size.
