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! I received this gorgeous Audine Wools Mellow yarn in High and Dry in my September Knitcrate Box and I couldn’t get over the color and I instantly thought of an ear warmer and hopefully a set of fingerless mitts that I hope to work up soon!

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!

KNIT LIKE CROCHET EAR WARMER PATTERN INSTRUCTIONS

Pattern Instructions:

Ch 14

Row 1 (Foundation Row): Pick up a loop in the back bump of each chain. Complete normal RetP. (14 sts) 

Row 2: Tps, (TLks, tps 2)* rep * until there are 2 sts remaining, tps, work last st as normal (14 sts)

Repeat row 2 for the length needed to match your head circumference) For reference, my head circumference is 21.5 inches and I continued the pattern for 19.5 inches. Make sure you keep checking if it will fit by wrapping around your head as you’re completing it. Once you reach the desired length, leaving a long tail, cut yarn (approximately 8 to 10 inches). This tail will be used later for seaming up the ear warmer.

*Note: the ear warmer will stretch over time so you could make it on the tighter side.

Use this formula to calculate approximately how long the ear warmer should be if you’re using a wool-blend/yarn that has stretch to it:

Head circumference – 3 in. = Length of ear warmer in inches 

Use this formula to calculate approximately how long the ear warmer should be if you’re using a yarn that doesn’t have stretch to it:

Head circumference – 2 in. = Length of ear warmer in inches

But still be sure to try it out as you go to make sure it fits correctly.

Fold the ear warmer over with the wrong side facing, join the ends of the ear warmer together with whip st or using your preferred method of seaming using the tail left at the beginning or a long piece of yarn. Weave in any loose ends. Leave it or turn it right side out depending on which side you like better and enjoy your finished make!
