The Hali Balaclava is must-have accessory for those of us that live in cold climates and enjoy staying warm while still looking cool. This design has a different construction than my other two balaclava designs which actually means less seaming for you! The stitch pattern used makes this a fun project to crochet for intermediate and advanced crocheters, but is also a good introduction to post stitches for beginners. Because it’s worked with a combination of post stitches, the final fabric ends up being denser than normal ensuring your head will be warm even on the coldest of days. This balaclava is also makes the perfect gift for a loved one or a friend, and it looks great in every color - trust me I know from the 3 that I’ve made already! This pattern also features a tester look book to stir inspiration and so that you can see all the different versions of this design. You can also see them on my Instagram account @cosmaudi.
