Coziest Ear Muffs

Materials:

  • 5400-506 Martha Stewart Crafts Extra Soft Wool Blend: Igloo
  • 5800-506 Martha Stewart Crafts Glitter Eyelash: Blue Topaz
  • Lion Brand Crochet Hook - Size F-5 (3.75 mm)
  • Lion Brand Split Ring Stitch Markers
  • Large-Eye Blunt Needles (Set of 6)
  • Purchased headband, about 1/2 in. (1.5 cm) wide
  • Small amount of fiberfill stuffing
  • 2 small pieces of felt, same width as headband
  • Craft glue

Gauge:

14 sc + 18 rnds = 4 in. (10 cm).
EXACT GAUGE IS NOT ESSENTIAL FOR THIS PROJECT.
BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Notes:

  1. To change color, work last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook to complete st.
  2. Earmuffs are worked in continuous rnds; do not join and do not turn at beg of rnds. A marker is used to indicate the beg of rnd. Move marker up as each rnd is completed.
