Yarn kit for Hilly Hood balaclava by Anne Ventzel,in Önling No 2 and Silk mohair.
Hilly Hood has a roomy fit and is worked from the top down in broken rib. First a square is worked for the top of the hood. Then stitches are picked up and knitted along the sides of the square and the sides are worked down from here, while increases and decreases are worked across the back of the hood. The stitches are joined in the round under the chin and the neck is worked in the round until the back stitches are bound off using the Italian bind off technique. The front stitches are then worked back and forth until these are also bound off using the Italian bind off technique. At the end stitches are picked up around the face opening and a rib edge is worked. Hilly Hood is originally knit with Isager Jensen Yarn, but here we knit with Önling No 2 merino wool for at super soft version.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
