First, a square is worked for the top of the head, then stitches are picked up and knitted along both sides of the square, and short rows are worked to round the top of the balaclava. After this the balaclava is worked straight down and then joined in the round below the chin. The neck is worked in the round in stockinette stitch before it is finished with a rib edge. At the end a rib edge is worked along the face opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e S (M) L\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits head circumference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 54-56 (56-57) 57-59 cm [21¼-22 (22-22½) 22½-23¼ inches]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth while laying flat:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 20 (21) 22 cm [7¾ (8¼) 8¾ inches]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 sts x 38 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] in stockinette stitch on a 3 mm [US2½]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 mm [US2½] \/40 and 80 cm [16 and 32 inches], 2.5 mm [US1½] \/ 40 cm [16 inches] and 2 mm [US0] \/ 40 cm [16 inches] circular needles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSuggestion 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 (50-100) 100 g 3\/4ply (approx. 50 g = 235 m [257 yds]) \u003cstrong\u003eheld together with\u003c\/strong\u003e 25-50 (50) 50 g  Silk Mohair (approx. 25 g = 225 m [246 yds])\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan\u003e★ ★ ★ (3 out of 5)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manchester Wool \u0026 Yarn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58214147227979,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0792\/9285\/8699\/files\/IMG-2891.png?v=1787310381","url":"https:\/\/manchesterwoolandyarn.com\/products\/barbara-balaclava-petite-knit-patterns","provider":"Manchester Wool \u0026 Yarn ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
