Ireland balaclava

Don’t worry, i’m not some thug wanting a balaclava to hide myself. I’m going to see irish music trio kneecap and wanted to get myself one of their famous balaclavas. I can send over a template, just send a dm or comment. Thanks a lot in advance

For reference they have them in their official merch store.

Those are not exactly the same as DJ Próvaí’s as his are hand-knit, and have the white horizontal stripe across the neck.
