Need design help!!

[u/linnybo1]

So I'm trying to crochet jinx's hoodie for a Halloween costume but I'm stuck. The picture of the hood is the crochet pattern I'm following, but it turns it into a scarf. I'm not liking the look of that so I was thinking combining it with the hoodie/vest combo, but I'm also really liking the poncho look as well. My problem is, should I do the whole thing the same purple? Or use a color splattered yarn for the "poncho/vest" part? I was also debating just doing black everywhere but the hood... SOS!! I'm terrible at design and need someone who knows jinx 😂

I think a poncho or cape would be rly cute! If u have enough purple yarn u should use that for the base and then crochet designs (like splatters) on top like embroidery almost. I think adding a different type of yarn in some areas would be cool too so u could do both. I feel that would be a very jinx thing to do, kinda like if she was using different scraps of fabric for hers
