I struggled trying to find a pattern for one of these to begin with, and I specifically wanted one that was knit and used bulky yarn so it worked up quick and was stretchy. I knew this would be a perfect gift for my dad who is always working outside late into cold winter nights. I wanted something very adjustable that would keep him toasty warm, and also protect his mouth and nose a little from breathing in all those chemicals we’re exposed to when crafting around outside.
