The Yarn used to crochet a Fox
The yarn used to make the Crochet Hooded Fox Blanket is Bernat Softee Chunky Super Bulky Weight yarn from Mary Maxim. Bernat Softee Chunky is 100% Acrylic and a lighter Super Bulky yarn. You can find a large selection of colours at an affordable price below.
Substitutes
If you’re looking for a yarn substitute I’ve listed a few that I think will work well. Make sure to meet the pattern gauge of 6.5 sts and 6 rows equal to 4″ in pattern with a 10mm crochet hook
It’s hard to find a Super Bulky Weight substitute for this yarn because most are thicker and bulkier than Bernat Softee chunky. The easiest substitute for super bulky yarn is to use 2 strands of worsted weight yarn. Here are a few of my favourites.
The Hook
I love crocheting with my Streamline Hooks from Furls. They are light and easy to work with. I especially love the large crochet hooks. They are so nice to work with and I can crochet for hours without hand pain. I used the Aries 10mm crochet hook and the Taurus 6.5mm for the Crochet Hooded Fox Blanket. Use code MJS15 for 15% off.
You can purchase the crochet pattern on RAVELRY OR ETSY. Or purchase the Digital and interactive pattern on RIBBLR that can be translated to Spanish with the Auto-Translator feature.

Construction
The blanket and fox hood are worked using a 10mm crochet hook and 1 strand of super bulky yarn; you may substitute with worsted weight yarn by holding 2 strands together, double the yardage required. The hood pieces are made using a 6.5mm crochet hook. The blanket is worked from the bottom up. The Fox tail is graphed into the back of the blanket. Each colour change is worked from a separate ball to avoid carrying yarn. The Hood is worked separately, then centred and sewn to the top of the blanket. Turning ch doesn’t count as a stitch. Video tutorial is included in toddler size on YouTube.
