The balaclava is one of this season’s biggest musthaves. The clever combination of hat and collar keeps both neck and head warm, while looking super chic.

Balaclava No. 2 is worked top down in a delicate and classic cabled pattern.

Note! The cabled pattern expands in wash and use.

The gauge before washing is approx. 21 sts / 25 rows using 4.5 mm [US 7] needles.

It is therefore particularly important to work a swatch and wash it before beginning the work.

The balaclava is as such also washed before use to obtain the right fit.
