Designers consider a hood to be one of the main and necessary additions to a jacket, coat, sweatshirt or any sportswear. In addition, the hood is considered an excellent accessory, on which various images, patterns are often depicted, embroidery and delays are done, and bright linings are added to the image. It's amazing how much this piece of clothing can change a person's outfit and appearance.
Sewing a one-piece hood is not difficult and anyone can do it. The main thing is to create a hood pattern, since this is what most often causes difficulties for beginning seamstresses.
Hood without fastening
To get started you will need to know:
This type of hood is usually used for coats, shirts, and jackets. It is very practical and convenient, as it can be detached later. First of all, before starting modeling, you need to take measurements - the desired length, head circumference, thickness, etc. The pattern of this model is somewhat reminiscent of constructing a collar, since the work starts from a right angle. A segment is drawn from the beginning of point O, which will be after the hood is sewn into the clothes. The segment should be no more than 5 centimeters.
From the segment horizontally we lay another one, 2.5 centimeters long, which will show how much the hood will fit to the head. The fit will increase if the distance is made larger.
Then we set aside a new segment from point O to point K, which will determine the length of the neck. The main task is to present an approximate sketch of the hood from the side. From the drawn section of the neckline OK, we find point K1 there, which is equal to half the tuck opening - it is approximately equal to 8 to 12 centimeters. This point defines a smooth cut on the pattern .
After this, add the length of the product. We make a height from the original segment, taking into account a couple of centimeters of free fit. This calculation depends entirely on the preferences of the needlewoman, however, do not forget that a hood that is too long threatens to fall over the eyes. Next, use smooth lines to connect the height and segment OK, forming a mock-up silhouette of the hood.
It is recommended to add enough centimeters for a loose fit , since this product should not fit exactly according to the shape of the head.

are used specifically. Swiss terms I don't understand
Can you specifically ask what is not clear?
Let’s just say that we couldn’t understand something right off the bat. If I start to figure it out, I’ll get angry, and if I don’t understand, I’ll guess, but I’ll waste a lot of time. + experience in independent design - 25 years ago, in elementary school. T.V., if it’s not difficult, post a larger drawing (very small, the very first picture/drawing) in Lin Jacques’ article about hoods.
I think it’s easier to fit a larger size pattern to my 38 (according to the burde) Just adjust the neck?
Mallorca, maybe I can help?
