Yes, I agree with Glynis, I don't think I ever really wear hoods, but they look nice as an alternative to a collar and they add warmth.
Well the bands are all ripped back and I have cast on my 258 stitches and have knitted two rows. I think it's going to be much better. I'm exhausted now, though, so I'll try to do some more tomorrow evening.

Just finished my hood tonight, I like it being on the slouchy side. Definitely nice and warm as a collar and will certainly cover your head if need be

Sewed the buttons on this afternoon and it's all finished I'm wearing it now and it's so cosy and comfy. DH says it's like the hoodie tops from Robin Hood, I tend to agree with him! I'm certainly thinking about making another one at some point, maybe in a darkish green .... Pictures tomorrow!

I finished mine while on holiday in Devon this last week. I love it and have worn it all week. It's warm and practical as well as lovely. I have a few photos of it out and about, and will try to post some tomorrow. For now I'm just enjoying having internet access after a week with no network connection LOL
