A few years back, I made a cardigan for myself that had a hood. I fouled up the pattern somehow (I can't quite figure out how), and ended up with a really large neckline and a correspondingly large hood. We're talking a Sith Lord, down-over-the-face hood. Despite its other flaws, I was happy with the cardigan and wear it proudly.
Now my husband has fallen in love with the huge hood and wants me to make him a something similiar. However, I can't figure out how to make a sweater with a huge hood and a normal sized neckline. I know that I could make gradual increases along the hoodline, but he wants something big and floppy, that starts large at the neck and then drapes over the face.
Any suggestions?
