Easy twisted ear warmer crochet pattern (this was made for a 10 year old girl so I made LESS rows) |
Skill Level: Easy
My Finished Size: 20 inches width
To make it bigger or smaller in width, you can add or subtract starting chains. Please be aware and account for the stretchiness of your crochet fabric and or how tightly or loosely you crochet.
You will make a chain to Start that will measures 1.5' less than your head circumference. (Start the Chain very Loosely go UP a hook size if you feel you crochet too tightly)
For example, if you are making this headband for a medium-sized adult with a head circumference of 20'. you’ll want to chain enough stitches to make an ear warmer that measures 18.5'.
For the starting row you will be working in the BACK bump of Chain, and on the LAST row we will work Half double crochet SLIP st
How many Chains you will need to make the ear warmer headband for different sizes.
Make a Chain length that measures the size required. And make as wide as you feel comfortable to cover ears, my daughter prefers them wider.
