This is a printed pattern in Swedish. The pattern is only sent if you buy at least 2 balls of yarn at the same time. We reserve the right to cancel orders that do not comply with this.
November Balaclava is knitted from top to bottom in half patent. First, a square is knitted that forms the top of the head. Then stitches are picked up on each side of this square, and the balaclava is knitted straight down, to finally be brought together under the chin and knitted in the round. This is by picking up stitches under the chin. Finally, an elastic edging is knitted around the face opening.
The balaclava has a feminine fit, as it covers the ears but without going so far into the face. Note that the measurements apply after washing and that you should wash the balaclava before use, as semi-patent stretches when washed.
Knit a test patch to find the stitch size that gives you the right stitch strength. Wash the test strip before measuring the stick strength.
