The Fluffy Hooded Bear Cowl is a fun and whimsical winter accessory that is sure to keep heads and necks warm! This snoodie is quick to work up with simple stitches, a large hook, and super bulky textured yarn! There is minimal sewing involved as the hood and cowl sections are crocheted all as one piece, with the teddy ears separately attached at the end. The two sizes for this pattern (adult and child) make this a perfect Mommy and Me gift! It is also great for Halloween or cosplay costumes, as a birthday or Christmas holiday gift, or just for anyone who loves staying cozy and cute during the cold!

This pattern features Lion Brand Yarn’s Go for Faux yarn, which creates the softest hooded scarf you’ll ever crochet. It has a lovely and relaxed drape as well, without feeling heavy on the head. You can opt for similar furry or fluffy yarns for this project as well!
