The Carmen balaclava is knit from top to bottom, starting flat and then transitioning to the round. The first section is a rectangular top, from which the main body of the balaclava is shaped. The sample shown is knit using Drops Daisy in Red, combined with Drops Kid Silk in Red for a softer finish. You can watch my video tutorial linked below and knit along with me! It includes all the steps of this project.
