bunny ear balaclava or just a simple balaclava tutorial part 1 crochet

*THERE IS AN UPDATED VERSION OF THIS VIDEO* what I explained firstly in the pattern when you make ribbing around your face part, is to slip stitch in the next stitch ,“ skip one stitch “ and slip stitch again. but because some may find it’s too tight, you can ignore the “skip one stitch“, instead * after you made the ribbing, slip stitch into the next stitch, and slip stitch again in the next stitch, turn your work, skip the two slip stitches you just made and make the ribbing again which is 5 single crochets in the back loop only* materials you need * yarn I used is thicker than normal yarn, it’s caron one pound. * two colors of medium weight yarn I used caron one pound for the main color and big twist value worsted weight for the inner part of the ears. 5mm crochet hook or for bigger size scissors and yarn needle sizing you measure from your forehead to the neck, ( that’s how long your balaclava is without neck ribbing) and 1. that’s the foundation chain. 2. Next make the rows that covers the top of your head( I did about 4 inches for my 22 inch circumference head) , and when you go to the side 3. which is hdc and slip stitch , put the 1 2 on your head and determine how many stitches you need for 3. Which is you must find where your head curves, down to the neck, ( not forehead to the curve) and make hdc stitches for that measurement. Hope this helps. next part 2 will show how to do the neck ribbing part and the ears :) instagram Disclaimer - you are free to make this balaclava and sell the finished objects using this tutorial, as long as I am credited for the pattern.
