If you have cold ears then it’s time to whip up this cozy head band to cover them up. This pattern can easily be made in any size and with any yarn.

The ear warmer in the images fits a child’s head of 14″ and took about an hour to complete. Plenty of time left to make more for every member of your family!<\/td><\/tr>
