This twisted ear warmer is worked up in very simple stitches, making it easy to crochet this to any size you want, including the circumference and width. That means you can basically use any yarn and hook size. However, I strongly recommend using the Cotton Fair as it provides a nice comfy stretch. The yarn is on the expensive side, but so well worth it.
Spring is almost here… the weather is still cold, but warmer temperatures are starting to roll around. That means that we can start packing away our heavy winter gear and bring out the lighter spring wear. And this twisted ear warmer is the perfect accessory to replace a winter’s hat. It has a lovely twist, which can be worn at the forehead, at the side or even at the back of the head.
