Balaclava Helmet
Ready to knit your coziest cold-weather accessory? Our new Balaclava Helmet, made in Dream (100% merino wool) yarn, will keep you feeling warm and looking cute through all sorts of outdoor winter activities. Super squishy rib stitching pairs with light, soft, and fluffy merino wool for a winning combination that you’ll want to wear all season!
This balaclava is knitted bottom up. It is first knitted flat, then it is joined to create a slit in the center of the neck (in front of garment) and the rest of the neck is knitted in the round. Then the back of balaclava is knitted flat. Then stitches are picked up all the way around to create a tube shape that is knitted in the round.
