Hi! I’m new here and English isn’t my first language. I purchased a pattern for the “Hyde Hood” and scoured the internet for a replacement of the recommended yarn, found it purchased the hooks, followed to the letter for the “biggest” size… and it turned out too small on the hood and the scarf, tried blocking it but didn’t worked out.
I want to make my without following the my question is, how to I achieve the “pointy” scarf with a lot of increases but still repeating a lot of rows with the same sts? Should I increase in the middle instead of the beginning?
I am new to Tunisian Crochet but obsessed with it!

Hi! I looked up the pattern and it seems like all the sizes result in the hood being the same width, so to make it larger you’ll need to end up with more stitches. Maybe try following whatever the repetition instructions are for the increases, until it reaches the width you need for the hood.

But I also wanted to have a longer scarf but not to wide, if that makes sense

Working more increase repetitions to make the hood a bit wider will also add length, but you can try adding an extra row with no increases occasionally if it’s still not long enough. That would lengthen the scarf without widening it. So if the pattern has one increase row followed by a certain number of non-increase rows, then maybe add an extra non-increase row every 2nd or 3rd repeat.
