Helli Balaclava is a snug fit and warm balaclava worked in brioche stitch for a fast and fun project. The very snug fit has been tested on children aged 5 months to 3 years. It stays on and keeps warm.

The pattern uses both Knitting for Olive Heavy Merino (can be substituted with Double Soft Merino on sensitive children) and Soft Silk Mohair for a very warm result to keep out the cold even in the Nordic weather.
