First, a square is worked for the top of the head. Then stitches are picked up and knitted along the sides of the square and the balaclava is worked back and forth to under the chin, where it is joined in the round. At the end, a rib edge is worked around the face opening.\u003cbr\u003eThe balaclava has a feminine fit, as it covers the ears, but not the forehead or sides of the face. Note that the measurements given for the finished balaclava are for after it has been washed. The hat should be washed before wearing as the fisherman’s rib grows giving the hat the correct size.\u003cbr\u003eBegin by working a swatch to determine which needle size you need to achieve the correct gauge. Wash and block the swatch before taking any measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e0-1 (1-2) 2-7 years\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHead circumference:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e44-46 (46-49) 49-54 cm\u003cbr\u003e[17¼-18 (18-19¼) 19¼-21¼ inches]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e16 sts x 36 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] in fisherman’s rib on 4.5 mm [US7] needles before washing; the equivalent of 14 sts x 36 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] in fisherman’s rib on 4.5 mm [US7] needles after washing, as fisherman’s rib grows with washing and wear (note that 36 rows in fisherman’s rib are counted as 18 knit sts).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCircular needles:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4.5 mm [US7] \/ 40 and 80 cm [16 and 31½ inches]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e50-100 (100) 100 g Peruvian Highland Wool by Filcolana (50 g = 100 m [109 yds])\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePeer Gynt by Sandnes Garn (50 g = 91 m [98 yds])\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eheld together with\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e25 (25) 25 g Silk Mohair by Isager Yarn (25 g = 212 m [232 yds])\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eTynn Silk Mohair by Sandnes Garn (25 g = 212 m [232 yds])\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eTilia by Filcolana (25 g = 212 m [232 yds])\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBrushed Lace by Mohair By Canard (25 g = 212 m [232 yds])\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e: ★ ★ ★ (3 out of 5)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee the classification of difficulty\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/petiteknit.myshopify.com\/pages\/degree-of-difficulty\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pink November Balaclava Mini is knitted in Peruvian Highland Wool by Filcolana in the color Light Blush [334] held together with Tilia by Filcolana in the color Sakura [321].\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe beige November Balaclava Mini is knitted in Peer Gynt by Sandnes Garn in the color Lys beigemelert [3021] held together with Tynn Silk Mohair by Sandnes Garn in the color Lys beige [3021].\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PetiteKnit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55536460759416,"sku":null,"price":4.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/0574\/1122\/files\/novemberbalaclavamini3_1500x1500_medium2_05155158-eb22-4f5e-bfdf-57b66aa81e36.webp?v=1776769206","url":"https:\/\/www.nofrillsknitting.co.uk\/products\/november-balaclava-mini-petiteknit-printed-knitting-pattern-1","provider":"No Frills Knitting","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
