Knit this hood on the framework of the Three Sisters One shawl! A little creative finishing creates an asymmetric pointed goblin hood scarf from the base triangle scarf with murky grey-yellow stripes. Even though it’s not much more effort than knitting the basic scarf/shawl, there’s more to it than just simple seaming.

This design makes a decent showcase for good yarn scraps. Choose a full skein of main color and 1-3 contrast colors: as shown, this scarf uses Cascade Yarns Heritage Sock in Steel/5602 for the MC, and an average .5 mini-skein’s worth each of Malabrigo Yarn Sock in Ochre, Frank Ochre, and Chircas. The hood finishing took a very minimal amount of Frank Ochre—maybe 15 yards.

Materials:

• 1 skein of MC Cascade Yarns Heritage Sock in 5602/Steel, and ~40 yds each of Malabrigo Yarn Sock in Ochre, Frank Ochre, and Chircas (CC1, CC2, CC3), plus 10-20 yards for finishing, or up to * 140 yds CC.
