About this pattern:
This pattern is available in two sizes: adult s/m and adult l/xl. Adjust the gauge accordingly to make it a larger or smaller size.
The neck part of the balaclava is knit in the round, and the top part is knit flat.
You will need knitting needles (for knitting in the round and for knitting flat) to match the gauge, up to 200g of super bulky yarn, one stitch marker, and a darning needle.

For adult s/m size:
Gauge: 9 sts in 4 in / 10 cm in stockinette stitch (row gauge is not important – measurements are given instead of row count)
For adult l/xl size:
Gauge: 8 sts in 4 in / 10 cm in stockinette stitch (row gauge is not important – measurements are given instead of row count)
