   You should be able to do this, but you will probably want to add ribbing at the neckline then to keep it from stretching out.

   Why can't you just use a jacket that you have trace the collar and use that for a pattern?    Change the hoodie to a collar.  That way you won't have to add ribbing.  Just a thought.

   I had someone come in yesterday with this same problem.  She is going to cut the hood off and just add ribbing to the neck -  for a one-inch finished neckband, purchase 2-1/2" of ribbing; for a mock turtleneck, purchase 4-1/2" ribbing.  I stock many colors of ribbing - just send me a small piece of the removed hood for a color match.
