Kyoto Balaclava
This balaclava is knitted in one piece, using just one ball of Super Bulky yarn. Merino wool is used to make the fabric soft to your face. The wool will not only keep you warm, but also ventilate well under a down jacket in a windy winter weather. Wear it as a balaclava, neck warmer, hood or a fashion statement in a color that speaks YOU!
