How to crochet an easy crochet ear warmer worked in a combination of single crochets and treble crochets to create a cozy, textured crochet pattern and your favorite Lightweight #3 yarn. Toddler, Child and Adult sizes included.

Video tutorial included.

I just love the texture of this stitch pattern that I once discovered in a dress many moons ago. That dress used a crochet stitch called the Even Berry Stitch, but I found that in working the little berry stitches up, they did not hold their textured shape that well with some of them caving inward or flattening out, so I modified this stitch pattern by alternating single crochets and treble crochets to get the same exact look of the Even Berry crochet stitch, but with better stitch definition long term.

This ear warmer is part of the 2024 Mystery Earwarmer Crochet a Long - Design 2.

Materials:

• 105 (135, 145) Yards of Lightweight #3 Yarn - I used Lion Brand Superwash Merino in the Mustard Seed colorway
• G6/4.25mm Crochet Hook
• Tapestry Needle
• Tape Measure (gauge is essential)

Material Notes:
Acrylic yarns work well for ear warmers when it’s just cool out and not too windy. To help protect against the wind, I would recommend an animal fiber. The more animal fiber within the yarn, the better it will protect against the wind and the warmer it will be. My favorite yarns for cozy ear warmers are wool blends, but feel free to use your favorite lightweight yarn! If you are allergic to wool, but looking for a different animal fiber, try alpaca.
