Learn how to crochet a cute and cozy ear warmer headband with a twist front and a knit-look stitch pattern. I love this crochet headband pattern because it’s beautiful and functional! The bulky weight yarn is super warm and will keep your ears nice and toasty this fall and winter.

Though the front twist may look complicated, I promise that it’s really easy to do. The headband itself is worked flat in rows. It’s joined into a loop with one simple seam. And, the clever design of the seam creates the look of a twist.

Sizing Notes
To account for the stretchiness of the crochet fabric, you’ll want to make a headband that measures 1″-2″ less than your head circumference.

For example, if you are making this headband for a medium-sized adult with a head circumference of 22″, you’ll want to chain enough stitches to make an ear warmer that measures 21″.

The following list gives the sizes of the finished ear warmers.

Toddler: 17″, chain 52.
Child: 18″, chain 55.
Teen or Adult Small: 20″, chain 61.
Adult Medium: 21″, chain 64.
Adult Large: 22″, chain 67.
