Crochet Child and Adult Balaclava
Crochet Child and Adult Balaclava

The Crochet Child and Adult-sized Balaclavas have the same execution but different stitch counts to make it happen. There are two different patterns available. I'm not proper, so I would have called this a ski mask if I hadn't known better. I'm not sure I have ever heard the word Balaclava before, to be honest with you.

The Balaclavas are crocheted from side to side, leaving an opening for the eyes to make winter more bearable. Grab your Red Heart Super Saver yarn and play with these two patterns.

It is excellent for blocking the wind from your face, and you can put up your hood without any interference from the top, such as a pom pom or puckered top.

The child-size Balaclava is for 2 - 4 years of age and 6 - 10 years of age. Made as suggested above, it's not too tricky and crochets relatively quickly. I know as a child who loved playing in the snow, these are ideal on a winter's day: playing with friends or tobogganing.

The Adult Balaclava has two sizes It shows two different colours in the pattern write up but there is only 1 colour for 1 ball used per Balaclava. You see only this Grenadine Colour.

It has a size for general women and a size for men as well. It's made the same way as the child version but just a different chain length and repeating.
