i believe all the stitch details and every aspect of how to make this balaclava is described in detail in my PDF pattern - it has photos of every step!
gauge: 17st in 4inches (10cm).
You will need Worsted or Aran yarn and 4-5mm knitting needles, and a tapestry needle or crochet hook to weave in the yarn ends and also the same tapestry needle to graft stitches at the back of the hat (that is easy - link to awesome grafting tutorial inside the pattern!)
Do you love the look of knit leaf lace? But then you also want the knit hat to be a warm one… Enter the double leaf lace pixie balaclava! It is lined – knit in two layers – and it is extra warm because of that! This is the perfect comfination for winter, a hat and a scarf, two in one. It stays put and keeps the ears covered and the neck warm. The pattern comes in many sizes: from newborn to teen size.
Gauge: 17st in 4inches (10cm) in stockinette stitch. There is a list of recommended yarns and recommended needle size for each yarn listed in the pattern.
You will need:
Yarn (up to 180 grams for the largest size), knitting needles to obtain the gauge for knitting flat and for knitting in the round, tapestry needle, one stitch marker.
The hat part is knit flat, the neck part is knit in the round.
one part of the balaclava is knit flat, the other part is knit in the round. you will need either a long circular needle (magic loop knitting! yes, and there is a link to an awesome magic loop knitting too!) or five double pointed needles (i have done all the math - there it says how many stitches on each needle works best!) for the part that is knit in the round. for the flat part you can use any length circular needles or any single pointed or long Afghan needles.
all the measurements in the pattern are given in both centimeters and inches.
