Twist Ear Warmer Crochet Pattern Information
This crochet ear warmer pattern features a nice lace, making it great for every occasion throughout the cooler months.
Skill Level: Easy
Materials
- Yarn: Lion Brand Yarns – Vanna’s Choice (Worsted Weight, #4; 100% acrylic; 3.5oz/100g; 170 yds/156 m) – 1 ball.
- Crochet Hook: J 6.00mm
- Other: Measuring Tape, Scissors, Yarn Needle.
Vanna’s Choice is my go-to yarn for making comfortable and stretchy ear warmers. It is a medium worsted-weight yarn that works well with a J crochet hook.
Other yarns can be substituted provided they give you the stretch that you’re looking for.
Measurements – Size Chart
- Gauge: 12 sts = 4″.
- Finished Size: 20″ circumference by 4″ wide.
The finished size measures 20″ in circumference by 4″ wide. However, the circumference is easy to adjust to any size that you need in the stitch multiple provided.
The width, however, might be a bit trickier as you really don’t want to make this with fewer rows due to the lace. One thing you can try is switching to a thinner yarn if you’re making it for a child and need a thinner band.
