Today I'll show you how to knit this balaclava (hooded hat).

I'm sure you've already heard about this mega trend for Fall/Winter 2023-34.

Now it's time to get your needles ready so you can finish your new favorite piece in time. If you want to get started right away, skip to minute
12:50, "Start your knitting fun!"

Why a favorite piece?

Well, it's cozy and warm, and absolutely on trend. It looks best with a trench coat or as a finishing touch to a sporty outfit.

In any case, I hope you have lots of fun knitting it!

Perhaps this is your first knitting project? With the help of these step-by-step instructions, you're sure to succeed!

In this first part #1, I'll show you how to knit the looped part and increase for the hood.

There's also a longer intro where I tell you a bit about the product and yarn, but you can skip that if you like. Unfortunately, the sound quality isn't very good. I only realized the cause too late. The knitting pattern itself is fine, though.
... The continuation (decreases for the hood and facing can be found in Part #2:

   • Balaclava FAMULO stricken #2 - Strick dir ...  

♥ Materials for the balaclava for sizes 54 cm - 58 cm in a loose-fit style:

150g Luv & Lee uni from Atelier Zitron with needle size 5.5.

Alternatively: 50g color and 100g uni

100g is sufficient for a close-fitting balaclava.

You can also use any merino wool with a yardage of 80m - 100m that knits well with needle size 5-6 and is comfortable to wear.

♥ How to customize it is described in this video and in my Etsy tutorial, where you will find detailed written instructions with many pictures and diagrams as a printable PDF: Knitting pattern: Balaclava FAMULO PDF download also available in English:
