Hello everyone!
With it being the spring season I thought a nice and quick crochet ear warmer would be a perfect pattern to release to you! This crochet ear warmer can easily be worked up in an afternoon (if not several in an afternoon) making this a great relaxing project to just work up.
This crochet ear warmer uses the crochet Suzette stitch a fun stitch that creates a unique texture. I also love the way the Suzette stitch works up with the fair isle yarn from Red Heart which is the yarn we will be using in today’s pattern.
The colorway I personally used I think was just the perfect color combination for the spring season. It made me think of blooming flowers, and everything coming to life.

Before we go
As always I hope you enjoyed today’s crochet pattern. I love ear warmers in spring, helps keep my hair out of my face when you get those spring breezes and keeps my ears warm on brisk spring days.
When using the fair isle yarn the Suzette stitch is one I highly suggest using. Since its rows are not flat the texture really makes this yarn pop. Another stitch I suggest is the sedge stitch with this yarn, it works up beautifully, has a unique texture, and I love watching it work up. I have another ear warmer pattern here using the crochet sedge stitch https://crochetwithkim.com/winter-wonderland-crochet-ear-warmer/.
