If you are a beginner to crocheting, then you can make a balaclava. You will need to know some basic stitches such as single crochet and half double crochet to begin.In South Asia, balaclavas are commonly referred to as monkey caps because of their typical earth tone colours, and the fact that they blot out most human facial features. Monkey caps sometimes have a small, decorative, woollen pom-pom on top. They are commonly worn by troops on Himalayan duty for protection from the cold. [9]

A well-fitting ski mask is a practical addition to your ski clothing. It can fit under your ski helmet and it's compatible with most ski goggles. This, along with a helmet-compatible hood will optimally protect you. Almost all models have a stretch element in the fabric, or are knit in such a way that they’ll hug your head and face nicely. This prevents the ski mask or balaclava from appearing bulky. Thin Balaclavas can be used under motorcycle or snowmobile helmets for warmth in cool or winter conditions. The Under Armour ColdGear Infrared Tactical Hood is incredibly lightweight, making it much more comfortable than a traditional woolen balaclava. Despite its relative thinness, it also offers superior insulation, thanks to its innovative ColdGear Infrared fabric. This fabric uses a thermo-conductive inner coating to absorb and retain your body heat, while the close fit prevents drafts and protects your entire face—leaving only your eyes uncovered. Row 8: Ch1, starting in first st, 1esc in next 30 sts, [2esc in next st, 1esc in each of next 4 sts] three times, 1esc in next st, [1esc in each of next 4 sts, 2esc in next st] three times, 1esc in each st to end, turn. 97 stsFasten off both sides of face shaping are in place and seen in profile (they should be the same shape and size). Edging Row 1 (RS): Work a row of sc around the face of the hood; crochet evenly into the row ends** of the first side of the face shaping, 1sc into each stitch on the last row of the main hood body and into the top row ends of the second side of face shaping. If you don’t have a lot of crochet experience, choosing a yarn that’s easy to work with can be a big help in avoiding frustration as you work. Choose a yarn that clearly shows your stitch pattern, rather than a fleece or another fuzzy option. Measure for the proper fit. With RS facing, attach yarn to top of the last row end of the first side of face shaping. If your tension is fairly relaxed, you may wish to go down a hook side for the edging.
