I sewed the raglan seams of the Rowan Hazel Cardigan sweater but realized the hood instructions came before the seam sewing so jumped ahead of myself. Will it be possible to do the hood and sew it on as it looks like it’s knit separately make a collar that would fit instead of a hood. Thanks so much!

Attaching a hood after raglan sleeve seaming
Seaming the sleeves to the fronts and back is the correct thing to do. It looks like the pattern neglects any instructions for attaching the hood. You can knit the hood separately and seam it to the finished sweater or you could pick up sts around the neck and make a collar if you prefer.
Thank you and I see the last they say is sew sleeves, I haven’t sewn the side seams yet as I didn’t see that listed until the last but thought I should be able to do them anytime? Thanks for the help!

Yes, the side seams can be done anytime. There are a couple of comments on the Ravelry pages about the lack of instructions for joining the hood.
