Crochet snoods are a huge hit this year. So I decided to jump on the crochet snood bandwagon as well and made one for myself! This crochet pattern is very beginner friendly because it's the same stitch repeated all around! In fact, it's so easy and beginner-friendly that I decided to name it the Stupid Simple Snood.
The hit show on Netflix, Wednesday has inspired many people to get crafty and learn to crochet. If you're looking for Wednesday-inspired crochet patterns, I've got you covered!
I bought these Caron Latte Cakes from my local craft store a few years ago thinking that I would make the kids a crochet cardigan. But they were growing up faster than I could design and crochet them, so I just gave up.
I rarely use variegated yarns just because I find it uneasy when I have no control over when the color changes happen but this yarn was so soft and squishy, I couldn't pass. I was just waiting for the right project to come along. When I decided to make this easy crochet snood, I knew I had to bring some "oomph" into it and what better to do that than a novelty yarn like Caron Latte Cakes.
I wasn't sure if I was going to publish a crochet pattern for this snood because it was just so easy that most crocheters either wouldn't need a pattern or they could find a pattern somewhere else on the internet. But I thought, hey why not!
What is a snood?
Snoods (sometimes called "snoodie") are essentially extra long and extra wide infinity scarves that can go around your neck twice and be put up as a hood. The width of the snood should be able to cover the back of your head when worn as a hood.
This crochet snood pattern should not be confused with the traditional snoods that women wear in the 1940s (which we are now more familiar with as "hairnets").

Stupid Simple Crochet Snood Pattern
What You Need / Materials

- Yarn Needle
- Stitch Markers
- Scissors
Stitches & Abbreviations
- st/sts - stitch/stitches

Notes
- Final measurement: 26 inches long (or 32 inches around) x 12.5 inches wide.
- Gauge: 10 cm x 10 cm (4" x 4") = 11 dc stitches x 8 rows
- If you're having trouble reaching the gauge, aim to get the final measurements.
- Chain 2 at the beginning of each round does not count as a stitch.
- Continue working in the same direction, no need to turn.
Crochet Instructions
Round 1: 150 Fdc, slst into the first fdc to join, make sure it's not twisted (150 sts)
*** Alternatively, you can ch 152, dc into the third st from the hook, and then dc into each st across, then slst into the first dc you made (again, making sure it's not twisted).
Round 2-24: Ch 2 (no need to turn your work, continue working in the same direction), 150 dc in each st around, slst into the first st to join (150 sts)
Try it on and see if the snood is enough to cover the back of your head. When you're done, cut, fasten off and weave in your ends!
