Thank you so much for supporting brands that support my channel!
So happy seeing adults using/knitting balaclavas. Since my kids were born i have knitted them every winter new animal themed ones, my son likes fox and for my daughter a deere one. People always compliments their cute ears 😄
Aweeee i love foxs
using the scrap yarn to make it multicoloured was such a good choice! it looks super cute!
I am a super beginner and I made this in 3 days! So happy to learn so many basic techniques (adding stitches, rib stitch, in the round, i cord etc.), and over the moon with how it turned out. Needed to find other tutorials about super basics for each (e.g. binding off i cord) but just wanted to say thanks!
this comment gave me the courage to start! I didn't really understand how she seemed to have boound off (without binding off) the top of the head piece, though, so if you know how she did that i'd be very happy to know. Now i just bound it off and picked up stitches everywhere, whereas she seemed to have been able to use the stitches she had on the separate needle (?) anywho, great tutorial so far
Love this!! I haven't even watched the video yet. All I saw while scrolling were the pics and I was immediately hooked😅. It's the fact that it looks like it'll fit comfortably, and bonus!!, no sharp peaky back end. Just smoothly following the shape of the head. Oh, I am going to have so much fun with this, thank you!❤😁
I will absolutely be giving this a go! I've been thinking about making a balaclava/hood like this for ages, but somehow couldn't wrap my mind around this type of construction, which is also my favourite type of construction. Thank you for setting it out so simply, and I am way less intimidated now. Time to go stash diving!
I had no idea these were trendy again :) I have pattern books from the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s that include balaclavas. Yours looks stunning on you! One suggestion - instead of having the neck ribbing as one solid piece around, make it open with a few extra stitches and button hole. The button goes below and between the ear and front centre, or wherever you want it to be. That way, you don't have to pull the entire piece over your head (and hair!) to put it on or take it off. I love the way you finished it off! Way cool lady!
This is such a cool idea!!!!! 😍 love the buttons
Can you help me find the pattern? Kind regards 💞
Immediately grabbed some scrap yarn and needles after watching this. Thanks for sharing! ✨
It looks amazing!! Love the scrappy element, all the colors look lovely together. I might have to knit myself a balaclava now...
it's really cute style! kinda like a hooded sweater without wearing a sweater
This is insanely beautiful, the colors, the shape, the yarns, I'm in love 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Knit one earlier in the fall. I walk my dog and some days are so cold. Wonderfully warm and I even add an extra hat when it is windy.
Your Balaclava is stunning! It’s my favorite one!!!! I really love the colors and yarn you chose and enjoyed watching you make it. Thanks!
Thank you so much 💗
My main issue with balaclavas is the same as with scarves - having something up against my neck is really uncomfortable. That being said, that looks really nice, and makes me tempted even if I doubt I'd get much use 😅
Excellent tutorial for the construction! Thank you. Super cute colors 🎉btw.
Love how it become like a hood, super cool.
Yes! My favorite part about it too :)
I got so hype when I saw my notification‼️ so excited for this video 🙌🏾. Love everything you make ❤️
Thank you so much!!
@@WellLovedKnits you’re welcome!!
I free styled soooo many balaclavas with scrap yarn this winter also, love the icord finish on yours!! This is making me want to dig up my additional scrap yarn now 😆
That sweater you’re wearing is gorgeous.
the most stunning color combo i've ever seen 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love this video!!! Thank you for making it.
What a lovely balaclava 🧶😊
I bought my first pattern ever last week, and it was one of yours 🥰 so now I’m making V-neck vest and I’m having so much fun 🤩 , thank you ❤️
I love the way this looks!
Wow, I adore this! So trendy and practical for keeping warm! I really want to try it- thank you so much for sharing your process!
Scrappy hat season is my favourite season 😌
Thank you. I was really hoping and looking forward to receiving instructions.. Really lovely and easy to make.
This turned out so beautiful, can’t wait to try it out!
That's so cute I love it. Definitely will keep you warm.
Beautiful tutorial. Very inspiring for the "random" colorwork! Bellissimo
I think is awesome! And the color combination is perfect.
This is a great charitable knitting project!
Your Balaclava is absolutely beautiful.
AMAZING!!!! Love your color combo!!
So good!!! Im in love with this tutorial and will be making many of these 😍
They certainly look cozy 🙂🙂 and your yarn looks so nice and warm!! I love the scrappy stripes💕
Thank you so much for this video. It was so inspiring for me! I was looking for a nice pattern but I couldn't find anything nice. So I made my own first balaclava with your video and it looks amaziiing. ❤️❤️❤️
Could be my next project..thx a million.❣
I've never seen anyone push it back like a hoodie, and it's so cute, that's also my fave style of balaclava (have to make my own now!)
I wish this video existed before I knitted my own, I went with the same construction but the scrappy effect is so beautiful and now I want a balaclava like that 😅
So cute and a great way to use up scrap yarn that is fun to do! Thanks!
Omg i need this for when i use motorcycle taxis
Bellissima balaklava e ottima tecnica di lavoro grazie😃!
this tutorial is fabulous! will start one tonight! thank you!!!
Thank you for a great and inspiring video!
I have try and I learn some thing new so thank to sharing
I love this pattern! really excited to try it out. Have you written out the instructions/needle and swatch size somewhere that we can access? having written instructions for knitting is one of the ways I can learn best.
I love a good scrappy yarn project! I don't really have the need for a balaclava for I do love the look!
Love this. Definitely going to destash with a couple of these.
Love that!!
Just finished making my own! Fabulous tutorial ☺️❤️
Looks great and simple to do. Thanks,
Love this, the only thing I need to really concentrate on is the final edging.... thanks so much it looks great!
One question!!! How did you keep the stitches on the dpn but also cut off the working yarn?! When picking up stitches on the sides???
Oh my goodness. I absolutely loved this! Thank you so much for the tutorial Bethany ❤️ I have been really struggling to make the beanie no 1 from my favourite things knitwear so I might frog that and try this instead! Thank you beautiful 🥰
It looks super cute 😍
This was such a fun knit, thank you ✨
Inspiring! Hopefully next winter balaclavas are still 'in'
omg i looooove this. thank you for posting the process. :)
So that's easy like the crochet one
Wow super!😍 thank you so much!!❤
I just made this thanks to your tutorial, thank you :D It's so comfy!
Love the video! Also strangely well timed, this hat at least won't fly away with the storm going on in Belgium. I hope you're alright and it didn't bother you too much.
So cute! I love it
Soo cute. I’ve been really put off by memories of horrible itchy ones as a kid.. but maybe the answer is knit my own???
I think it might be!!
It is fabulous! Just what I have been looking for. Please do you have a written version of this pattern?
Looks so cooooool!!!
Renkleri çok güzel birleştirdin, çok güzeldi.
hahaha I literally clicked on the video because of that sweater :D You're so cute for addressing it.
It looks great!
super cool!!! thank you so much.
Very nice and I like to try and I will thank
So cute! I’m gonna make one too!
I love it! I want to make one!
I'm Team Scrap! 💕 I'd make chunky mittens to match
I am going to make this and attach it to my sweater collar! I was wondering how I put a hoody on it and this will work! TY 🤗💕 I will make a single one to wear with various coats too!
LOVE this so much!!!!!
Can ou go into dept on how you connected the neck piece?
She posted! Yay 🤗
Aww it’s been too long 💕
Sooooo perrrrrrrttttyyyyy❤
Love this SO much
This might actually convince me to do this. Winter in Scotland is never-ending so it’s not like I wouldn’t get use out of it. 🤔
super cute!!
Love it. ❤ soo trendy
Looove this
The balaclava turned out so nice! 😍I've been umming and ahhing whether to knit one up too. Maybe I'll just have to give it a shot! I thought it was interesting to use K2tog through the back look rather than the front loop, when you do the icord. Does this give a different effect?
Oh funny! I never tried it the other way. I figured working through the back loop was what helped the curl of the cord
I justtt made a balaclava using this video and accidentally k2tog through the front loop - it made these unintended "stitch-like" loops that are visible in the front!
Thank you!
hi, so nice! is there still the pattern somewhere to get or to purchase? :)
would be amazing
Super beau!!! Merci! 😉
Since I've discovered your channel I've been binge-watching all of your videos, I really appreciate your work and your passion for knitting! Love this tutorial as much as the others (I'm currently waiting for some skeins to be delivered in order to start your Sable Sweater) 🤩 Do you think you will make a tutorial for socks with circular needles in the future? I'm still a beginner, but I've watched you doing them and I'm veeeeery tempted! 🤓
I’m so confused how you worked around the U shape around the crown piece, how do I go back and forth without closing it shut ???
I have the same question!
So beautiful 😍😍👍🙋♀️
Love it!
Loooove it!
I have knit on balaclava this winter and I love it. It is super warm and cute. Mine is caramel color :) suits my coat!
What weight wool would work for a one type of yarn? Thank you i LOVE it
My first thought on opening this video and seeing the sweater "What is THAT and where can I find the pattern".
I don’t get how you knit around that crown part. I’d love to work to a pattern to make this cause I LOVE how it looks!
Can someone tell me where I can find the pattern ? I’d love to make this gorgeous Balaclava 😍
I’m desperate - can you or someone please explain what to do with the cut ends when changing the colours of yarn? Simply weaving it in? Or just a knot? if so then a knot with the working colour or previous cut end? Halp 😬
Благодарю!
How do I find the Pattern? Can you please help? Great video! 💞
