Balaclavas

Once upon a time you could walk down the street wearing a balaclava and people wouldn't automatically assume that you were a terrorist.

Having said that, you'd be hard pushed to see these two young gentlemen from a 1970s Harmony pattern as extremists of any kind, especially with those jaunty pom-poms. They look more like the victims of a cruel condition where one's bobble hat keeps on growing uncontrollably, smothering the wearer and resulting, eventually, in a snug head-to-toe acrylic cosy.
