      After requests from Minnesotans, some of us here in California decided to get together and make balaclavas. Many of us decided on this pattern, and with good reason! It's a very clearly and well-written pattern WITH QR CODES TO SPECIFIC TECHNIQUE TUTORIALS!!!!! So smart!!!! Thanks for making supporting the brave and courageous people of Minnesota so easy!!!

      Really like the pattern /project but found some of the directions confusing. Figured it out after some time and it’s looking nice.

      I’ve only just cast on, but the pattern is well laid out with links to tutorials for unfamiliar techniques are included right in the pattern. I like how after each section the final stitch count is included. Pattern is straightforward and easy to follow.

      Tutorials are easy to follow as well.
