Winding Woods Ear Warmer
"An easy crochet ear warmer pattern free for a knit like crochet ear warmer made with wool! A Quick chunky crochet ear warmer pattern. CROCHET LIKE KNIT EAR WARMER INSPIRATION This pattern is for an easy reversible Tunisian crochet knit like crochet ear warmer made with wool! This is a cozy and elegant ear warmer that will be the perfect accessory this Fall and Winter. It’s the perfect project to make if you want a knit-like ear warmer but don’t know how to knit! I have been experimenting a lot with the Tunisian knit stitch and I decided to figure out some knit like crochet stitches. I especially love the look of knit cables so I wanted to give it a try in Tunisian crochet. The left twist knit stitch creates a beautiful cabled texture which also looks like the front post crochet stitch. They also remind me of the beautiful woods hence the name Winding Woods Ear Warmer! It’s also the season for quick crochet projects as you all are probably working on gifts or preparing inventory for your craft fairs and how cute would the Winding Woods Ear warmer look in the mix! I realized after I finished it that it was equally beautiful on the wrong side as it was on the right side and the seam just gets blended in as long as you weave in your ends well. SO that makes this pattern a REVERSIBLE crochet ear warmer!
