Step-by-Step Drawing Guide

Step 1: Draw the Hood Outline

Start with a smooth dome shape for the top of the hood.

Pull both sides down and meet them in a small point at the bottom.

Pro Tip: Keep both side curves the same length so the hood feels symmetrical.

Step 2: Add the Outer Hood Layer

Draw a larger dome curve outside the first hood shape to show thickness.

Extend the outer curves downward, leaving the bottom open.

Pro Tip: Keep an even gap between the outer and inner lines to show hood thickness.

Step 3: Draw One Sleeve

From the right side near the hood opening, draw a long curved line down for the sleeve.

Add a small cuff at the end using a thin band shape.

Pro Tip: Make the cuff slightly narrower than the sleeve so it looks gathered.

Step 4: Add the Other Sleeve and Body Outline

Draw a matching curved line down on the left side to form the other sleeve and body.

Add the second cuff and a small crease line to suggest soft fabric.

Pro Tip: Keep both cuffs about the same size so the hoodie looks balanced.

Step 5: Add the Pocket and Hem Details

Draw a large kangaroo pocket on the lower front with angled sides.

Add two small eyes and a tiny smile inside the pocket for a cute face.

Finish with a wide band along the bottom hem.

Pro Tip: Keep the pocket symmetrical, and center the face to make it extra cute.

Step 6: Add the Drawstrings

Draw two long drawstrings hanging from the hood opening, one on each side.

Add a small knot and a short tip at the bottom of each string.

Pro Tip: Keep both strings similar in length, with a slight offset for a natural look.

Step 7: Color in your drawing!

Fun Facts

• Hoodies became popular sportswear before turning into everyday fashion.
• The front “kangaroo pocket” is designed to keep hands warm and hold small items.
