Cream Of The Crop Crochet is back with another pattern to help us make the transition into the cooler weather. And today we have a brightly colored pumpkin ear warmer pattern to keep your ears warm.

Pumpkin Ear Warmers ~ FREE Crochet Pattern by Cream Of The Crop Crochet

The one thing I like about ear warmers is that they do a great job at keeping your ears and forehead warm without overheating you. Thus, they are perfect for this time of year when it’s cool, but not too cool.

Another beauty of this headband is that you can crochet this to any size you want. It’s given in a teen/adult size, but it’s easy for you to customize as you like. And the cute pumpkin applique can be used on many other items as a cute embellishment.

It’s a great stashbuster pattern as you don’t need much yarn for the band or the applique!

You can also leave the applique off and make this for wearing throughout the winter season. It’s perfect underneath a hood when the weather gets really cold.
