Haga Hood is worked seamlessly from the top down, in stockinette stitch with trims in twisted ribbing. The upper piece is worked flat. Stitches are then picked up along the sides and the hood is worked back and forth, with increases and decreases. After the shaping is completed, the hood is worked in the round. Stitches at the front edge are picked up and the trim is worked in the round.
