I love mixing genres. I love it. I love it in my music, like when Florida Georgia Line partnered with Nelly and did a remix of their song Cruise, or David Guetta’s Titanium, especially David Crowder’s Shadows. I love it in my food flavors (although I’m still on the fence with chicken and waffles). I love a good mix. So I love to bring that mix into my crochet. Light and lacy mixed with heavy cables and a little Steampunk accent was the inspiration for my Esteemed Lacey line.
I was looking at this line the other day and I realized that it was missing something. So this earwarmer is my late addition to this collection. If you would rather have a pdf version this pattern is available for sale here as well.
This cable is a relatively easy repeat and is and is made in on long piece and both ends are then sewn together to create the earwarmer. The finished earwarmer is about five inches wide and has a general fit. If you need the earwarmer tighter or looser you can always add or subtract a cable series.
