Krashani Hood Crochet Pattern

So. I am the luckiest teacher in the world, and I have very thoughtful students. One of my fabulous and thoughtful students is Krashani. This week, she brought me a gift: Two skeins of Deborah Norville Chunky Weight Yarn! She must have figured out that I love DN, because I'm always recommending it as a good worsted weight non-pilling yarn for projects like hats, which get a lot of handling. Well, this was the DN Chunky, and it has a texture almost like a felted yarn. It's in the color stormy.

Well, I am one of those that if you give me a gift, I'll get you one back...particularly if you give me yarn. (Keep that in mind, readers! If you send me a skein of yarn you love, I'll make something out of it for you!!). Anyways, I made her this tie hood.

It's very roomy, and, better, it's easy to make. I wanted something I could take back to my intermediate class and they could pick it right up. So, without further ado....
