    Cuddly Cat Crochet Scoodie with Pockets

    Published: Nov 2, 2012 · Modified: Nov 13, 2020 by Tamara Kelly · 254 Comments

    Several things came together to make the Cuddly Cat Crochet Scoodie with Pockets - a reader request, my kids' love of animals, and the inevitable need for new winter hats! Out of all these came this fun hat/hood-scarf-pockets cat lover's combo!

    Of course, it doesn't have to be a cat - change the ear style and it can be any animal at all - the colors had me thinking both wolf and Totoro! In an orangey red it would make a great fox too. Your imagination is the only limit!

    Add this pattern to your Ravelry Queue

    • US - K, 6.5 mm hook
    • US - H, 5.0 mm hook
    • Main Color: 630 - 945 yds worsted weight yarn (held doubled), OR half that quantity super bulky weight yarn (Caron Simply Soft in Grey Heather shown)
    • Contrast Color: 30 yds worsted weight yarn (Bernat Cottontots (discontinued) in White shown)
    • Stitch markers or scraps of yarn
    • Gauge: 10 dc x 6 rows = 4 inches
    • Sizes: The scarf is custom sized for the recipient, made to their arm span or height (plus a couple inches if it's for a child, so they can grow). The hood is written in two sizes, Child/Tween and Adult. The pattern is written for the Child size with changes for the Adult size in parentheses. When only one number is given, it applies to both sizes.
    • For instructions on any stitches or techniques used in this pattern, such as the FDC (foundation double crochet), seamless join, or Magic Circle, please see the Video Tutorials Page.

    Scarf: (US - K, 6.5 mm hook) Row 1: Using Main Color yarn held doubled, FDC to recipient's arm span or height, adding a stitch if necessary to get an odd number. The gauge calls for 10 dc = 4 inches, so for a 5' 4" person, FDC 161. The formula is:

    (Arm span in inches/4) x 10 = # of FDC If # of FDC = an even number, +1

    Turn at the end of each row. Row 2 - 6(7): Ch 2, dc in each stitch to end of row. Break yarn and finish off.

    free crochet scoodies patternHood: (US - K, 6.5 mm hook) Find center stitch of scarf and place marker (pm). Counting out from marked stitch, pm on either side at 17(19) sts.

    Row 1: Join Main Color (held doubled) with a slip stitch to an outer marked st. (Remove this marker.) Ch 2, dc in each st across, moving center marker up to new center st, ending with a dc in the last marked st. (Remove this marker.) Turn. (35(39) dc)

    Row 2: Ch 2, dc in each st to one st before marker, 2 dc in next st, dc in center (pm), 2 dc in next st. Dc in remaining sts to end of hood. Turn. (37(41) dc)

    Rows 3 - 8(10): Repeat Row 2. Turn. (49(57) dc in last row)

    Row 9(11): Ch 2, dc in each st to two before marker, dc2tog, dc in center (pm), dc2tog, dc in remaining sts. Turn. (47(55) dc)

    Rows 10(12) - 15(17): Repeat previous Row instructions. (35(43) dc in last row) Fold hood in half and sl st closed through both sides, leaving very last (center) st unworked. Weave in ends.

    Pockets (Make 2, yarn held doubled): (US - K, 6.5 mm hook)

    Row 1: Using Main Color (held doubled), FDC 16(18).

    Rows 2 - 6(7): Ch 2, dc in each st to end of row. (16(18) dc) Break yarn and finish off. Weave in ends.

    Ears (Make 2): (US - H, 5.0 mm hook)The ears are made in two parts each:

    1. Follow Row 1-9 directions below, using Main Color held doubled. Weave in ends.
    2. Follow Row 1-9 directions below, using Contrast Color (not doubled). Weave in ends.

    free crochet scoodie pattern free scarf pattern free crochet hoodie hat scarf pocket scarf patternRow 1 (RS): Ch 9. Sc in the 2nd ch from hook and each remaining ch. Turn. (8 sc)

    Row 2 (WS): Ch 1, sc in each st across. Turn. (8 sc)

    Row 3: Ch1, sc2tog, sc in each st until 2 sts remain, sc2tog. Turn. (6 sc)

    Rows 5 - 8: Repeat Rows 3-4 twice. (2 sc in last row)

    Row 9: Ch 1, sc2tog. Break yarn and finish off.

    Ear Assembly:
    Hold the Contrast Color piece in front of the Main Color piece, with RS of Main Color against WS of Contrast Color. Using Main Color held doubled, sc the sides of the ear together, going through both layers. Work 3 sc into the point at the top, and leave the bottom of the ear pieces unjoined. Break yarn and leave a long tail for sewing to the hood.

    Paw Print Appliques (Make 2 sets, yarn NOT held doubled):(US - H, 5.0 mm hook)
    Each set, or Paw Print, includes 4 identical toes and 1 pad. So for the Cuddly Cat Crochet Scoodie, make 8 toes and 2 pads, using the Contrast Color yarn.

    Toes:
    Make a Magic Circle and hdc 9 into the ring. Break yarn and use the seamless join to finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing.

    Pad:
    Row 1: Make a Magic Circle and into the ring hdc 2, dc, hdc 2, dc 2, hdc, sc, hdc, dc 2. Join to first hdc with a sl st.

    Row 2: Ch 2, hdc into the first st, hdc, 3 dc in the next st, hdc in the next 2 sts, 2 dc in the next 2 sts, hdc in the next st, sc in the next st, hdc in the next st, 2 dc in each of the last 2 sts. Use seamless join to finish off, leaving long tail for sewing.

    Assembling the Cuddly Cat Crochet Scoodie with Pockets:

    1. Sew Paw Print Appliques to pockets. free crochet scoodie pattern free scarf pattern free crochet hoodie hat scarf pocket scarf pattern
    2. Using K hook and Main Color held doubled, sc evenly across the "paw end" of each pocket, as shown below. free crochet scoodie pattern free scarf pattern free crochet hoodie hat scarf pocket scarf pattern
    3. Sew ears to top of hood as shown above or as desired.
    4. Using K hook and Main Color held doubled, join with a sl st to the RS bottom back of the scarf. Ch 1 and sc evenly around the entire scoodie. As you approach each end of the scarf, match the pocket to the scarf (applique side out, on the RS of the scarf) and sc through both layers, attaching the pockets to the scarf. Work 3 sc in each corner. Break yarn and use seamless join to finish off. Weave in ends.

      I love this scoodie and so will my grand daughter (9 yr. old). I just finished the fingerless gloves with the kitten paws last week for her and this will go with them for Christmas. She loves cats/kittens and has to stand out waiting for the school bus so she gets cold. This will help. Thanks so much for publishing. (I did the gloves in white with pink paw prints so scarf will be the same).

          Oh arent these just adorable! I am going to make them today! I did search around for the kitten mitts, and I did find a cute fingerless on Ravelry by Charlotte for free 🙂 I do believe that those will be just adorable with this! And I think adding the "fur" trimming to the front of this hoodie will really tie the two together 😀 I cant wait!!
          Thank you for such a wonderful pattern for free!! YAY!

        Kytty, that's what's in the photos, and it's thick and warm, but a large hook size keeps it from being too dense. I think it worked really well, but of course feel free to change it up however you like. 🙂

          Hi I was just wondering about the hood part, when you say hold the yarn doubled do I do that for the whole hood? And that means 2 stands correct? Should I go up a hook size if that's the case?

            Hi Christine! The whole project is made with 2 strands held together, and the larger hook size (or whatever gets you gauge). Only the appliques are made with the smaller hook and single strand.

      Hello,

      I love to crochet, and I when I saw this adorable pattern, I had to do it! Thank you so much for sharing. I do have a question though. I sell my crochet and knit on the side to make a little extra money here and there. Would you mind if I made these to order and sold them on my sites? I would be sure to provide a link to your page and give full pattern credit to you. If not, I understand.

      Thank you for your time.

        Hello Mikiaa!

        FDC is foundation double crochet - I have a video tutorial here: https://www.mooglyblog.com/foundation-double-crochet-fdc/ However, you don't have to use the FDC if you don't want to! A chain of the appropriate length and first row of DC will work just as well. FDC is nice because it lets you avoid having to work into the chain and gives a stretchier edge, but it isn't necessary for this project. 🙂

        I'm glad you like it! Let me know if you have any other questions!

            What part do you not understand, Mikiaa? Is it the seam at the end? Someone else asked about that too. Fold the last row in half, so that the stitch marker is at one end, and the first and last stitches of the row are touching. Then make slip stitches through both layers, going through the first and last st first, then then the second and second to last st, etc, until you come to the st with a st marker. Leave that st unworked. Cut the yarn, weave in the end, and turn the hood "right side out" so that the seam is on the inside of the hood and doesn't show.

            Does that help, or did you have trouble on a different part?

          Finished it yesterday. My niece will LOVE it! Took me a bit to figure out the FDC, but once I got it, it was smooth sailing! I thought it would take me longer to complete it because of pulled tendons in my wrist, but I managed to do it in only a few days.

          This pattern has inspired me to try my hand at making some "My little pony" themed Scoodie's. My daughter is all about the ponies these days.

          Thanks again!

      Loving this pattern, thanks! My daughter is a wolf lover so I'm making it to suit, just by changing the color scheme. I've kept to all the pattern instructions, however, in joining the hood, mine looks like it has a raised seam.Yours looks seamless, was it joined from the inside or the outside?

        Hi momanon, I'm glad you like it! There isn't a wrong side or right side to this pattern really, so after joining the hood seam I flipped it "inside out" so the seam was on the inside. Hope that helps and that your daughter enjoys her new hat! 🙂

        Heather, that was something someone mentioned - I'm not sure what pattern she used! But you could easily make any pair of simple fingerless gloves in the size needed and add the paw print applique from moogly! https://www.mooglyblog.com/paw-print-applique/

      My 12 year old LOVES this scoodie. I'm working on one for her now. Very simple and easy to follow. I also sell items for a bit of extra cash. Is it OK if I sell some of these as well? (Giving you full credit for the pattern of course). I have a feeling this will be a big hit with the kiddos. Thanks for sharing an awesome pattern!

      What does it mean to hold the yarn doubled? Is that just to make it bulkier? If I find a bulkier yarn can I use the same needle and not double it?

      Or does it apply to something else? Do I do this throughout the pattern? Or just for the FDC? (Sorry -- have never come across this before!)

      Thanks! 🙂

        Rachel, hold the yarn doubled means to work with two strands of yarn held together as one - it's easiest to do using two skeins, rather than both ends of one skein. It is to make it bulkier, yes, and having two strands gives more "air pockets" to make it warmer. If you prefer to use a bulkier yarn and you like the way it works out, then that's certainly an option! And yes, you'd want to use the same hook size, otherwise it will become too lacy. As it's written, the yarn is held doubled throughout the entire pattern.

        Thanks for asking - have a great day!

          I purchased some super bulky yarn thinking that meant I would only have to have one strand (sorry, I misunderstood) how did yours turn out? Was it hard to work two with bulky?

            Super bulky yarn means you'll only need the one strand. Holding 2 strands of worsted together (roughly) equals 1 strand of super bulky so you should be fine!

        Virginia, you can try, but it might make it rather lacey, and difficult to sew the ears and paw prints on. I'd recommend making a swatch and seeing what you think of the fabric.

        S, that's up to you - I think they're pretty big, but if you like bigger ones, go for it! 😀 I'd probably ch 11, (sc 10) in the first row, then work the decreasing pattern from there. That will make a big ear!

It turned out lovely!! Thank you so much for this pattern that is so well written!! I have never made anything like this so I was afraid it was going to end up in the pile of " I give up" work!! I was able to finish in a few days and the only thing I had a hard time with was the ears!! I did 4 until I got them right!! Thanks again!

          Hi shirley! I'm not sure why you have more than 41 dc on row 2. If you have 39 in row one, you only increase by 2 sts in row 2 - one before the center st, and one after. Each row then, through row 10, increases by 2 sts. So for row 3, there will be 43, for row 4 there will be 45, for row 5 there will be 47, and so on. When you get to row 10, there should be 57 sts total. Then, for rows 11 through 17, you'll be decreasing by 2 sts every row - with a dc2tog decrease before the center stitch, and dc2tog decrease after the center st. So for row 11 there should be 55 dc, then for row 12 there should be 53, for row 13 there should be 51, etc, until you get to row 17 where you have 43. Does that help?

              It's ok, not a pain at all! Basically, you're working one stitch in each stitch from the previous row (working even), EXCEPT that you put 2 dc in the stitch before the stitch with the marker (the center stitch), then work 1 dc in the center stitch (moving the marker up to this new center), and then work 2 dc in the next st (after the marked st). Then the rest of the row is worked even. So it's just the same as the previous row, except that you're making an additional stitch right before the center, and again after the center. Increasing 2 sts per round. Is that any clearer?

        Hi Breanna! For the yarn held doubled, you could use both ends of the same skein, or you could use both strands from two separate skeins - it's up to you! In my opinion, pulling from the center of two skeins is easiest. For this pattern I believe I used 3 skeins, so I used the first two together and then pulled from both ends of the third to finish it off (and avoid being left with two partials). I hope that helps!

      Hi, alright i LOVE this pattern! the problem I'm having though is figuring out the FDC. I've looked at the instructional videos but am still not getting it. It's hard to see where the loops are(the "v's"). Could I not just chain the # of loops for the arm span and then just DC into the starting chain? Thanks!

        Assuming you have the toddler around to try things on, I'd make the scarf as directed for his/her height/armspan, and then place the markers about 13 sts out from the center. Then work the hood as directed until it's tall enough to have the top meet at the top of the child's head. Then I'd skip to the end and seam up the hood. 🙂 Hope that helps!

        LOL, no worries, I knew what you meant! Ok, the hood is essentially worked flat, and then the last row is folded in half and seamed up to create the hood shape. In order to center it on the scarf, you find the center stitch on one side of the scarf, and then count out sts to either side, and then mark those sts. Then you work between those two sts, increasing on both sides of the center marked st, for 8-10 rows (depending on which size you are making). Then you switch to decreasing on either side of the center marked st for several rows. Then finally that seaming of the last row. You can see the shape that the increases, decreases, and fold create in the photo at the end of the hood instructions. Does that help?

      Hi there!! Is the inside color of the ear supposed to be much smaller than the outside? I have almost an inch of mc on the bottom of my ears. I did use two different brands of yarn for the two pieces, I was just curious what the size difference should be. Thank you!!!!

      Thank you for writing a clear, easy to follow, and accurate pattern! I tried another pattern and ended up with a hood the size of a helmet. I've just started the hood, and the way the increases are worked seems to make perfect sense with how one's head is shaped. I only wish I'd read the comments first because I've been working that first ch 2 as my first dc in each row, but it still seems to be coming out alright. Also, I'm doing this with one strand of Red Heart with Love (Pewter for the main color) and it seems to be alright. My only question is do you think it would be easy to modify the ears? Crazy as it sounds, my sister wants this with floppy bunny ears. Thanks!

One thing I did want to note is that i added a straight row between the increase and reduction phases to round the hood out more and it looks really fantastic.

She wanted it for a teen- pink with snowmen on the pockets (no ears). Turned out great! And upon giving it to her at work...TWO more orders!!!! I have a question tho... One of the orders is for a 3 yr old....how do I adapt the pattern for that size? I have made the scarf portion to be about 32 in long (101 dc's) Can you help with the hood portion?

I am starting to make one for my niece whose birthday is coming up right after Thanksgiving, she is about as much of a cat-lover as I am and I'm sure she will love this!! I have a question regarding getting started... When counting the number of FDC's made in the first row, does the initial ch-3 that I made to get started count as an FDC? Want to make sure I actually get the needed odd number of stitches... I have a 50% chance of doing it wrong. Lol 🙂 Thank you! Darci

      I loved making this hooded scarf and I need to make another to go with the first for some twin girls I know! My only issue with the pattern was the hood does not quite cover a head comfortably. My son was my model and he's about the same age and size as the twin girls these are being made for. My quick fix was to crochet a couple more rows of double crochet around the front of the hood while I was making the border around the whole thing. 😀

      Hi!!! Just made this Cat Scoodie and I loved it!! I was wondering if you've made it single stranded and if it looks the same or even how much yarn you thinking would take. I used 4 skeins for the double stranded one.
      Anyway, lovely pattern!!! Thank for sharing it with us

        Hi Cindy! I haven't make it single stranded myself - it would end up much thinner and smaller. But you can alter the pattern to work with just one if you like! 🙂

      This is absolutely adorable! It would be so cute on my toddler. She loves kitties and she might actually leave something like this on her head if it's more like a hood and attached to a scarf. I'm a novice so scaling it down is a little daunting, any chance of a toddler/child version of this? Thank you!

      This pattern is fabulous !! I have a question about the yarn you use please. I'm from the UK and we don't seem to do worsted weight yarn here. Please could you tell me what the UK equivalent would be , I'm stuck. Is it the same as Double knit or is it heavier like Aran wool ? I'm not very clued up on wool weights and don't know what to buy that is roughly the same as the one you use.

        Worsted is in between DK and Aran, but this particular yarn works up closer to a DK, in my opinion. 🙂

        Hi Debbie! Yes, the stitch counts are the same for each row of the scarf portion. If you are referring to the (7), that's a row difference for the sizes. 🙂
        The ch2 does not count as a stitch.

      Could this be decreased by 2 sts in the hood for a smaller child size? I’d like to make it for a 2-3 year old and a 5 year old and the child size you have just seems a bit too big.

Help what did I do wrong. I counted all stitches and that parts correct. They are 16 so I used the adult numbers

      Hi. Great pattern thanks! Have just started one to look like a fox as there are loads in the UK where my daughter lives. Several visit her garden. I live in Spain where yarn is not really classified as DK, Aran, Worsted per se. So could you tell me the width of the scarf please? I have finished the 7 rows for an adult but it looks too narrow. Thanks

        ♥ Hi Ann! You should make it as wide as you like just by adding more rows! As written, it's about 4-5 inches wide, which was in style at the time the pattern was originally written. Nowadays, I would've added a few more rows to take it to about 8" wide.

      Thank you so much for your prompt reply!. I agree that scarves were so much narrower before. I measured my favourite scarf which was about 6 inches wide but now seems so small!
      I will add more rows. I imagine that it will be relatively easy to make everything else larger.
