Ribbed Crochet Earwarmer

Simple single crochet stitches create crochet ribbing.

Baby, it's cold outside, but you can keep your ears toasty warm with this easy-make crochet ear warmer. I made it up in Red Heart color change yarn, but you can use any worsted weight yarn. The pattern is as simple as it gets: work a chain that's your desired width from top to bottom, work a row of single crochet and turn. From that point on, single crochet in back loop only for each row until it's long enough to wrap aroun your head. End the crochet, leaving a long tail to sew the two ends together. Voila!
