Lakeshore Ear Warmer Lite
The Lakeshore Ear Warmer Lite is the perfect stash-busting, gift-giving, beginner-friendly project in a more delicate weight yarn (fingering or sport) than its predecessor, the Lakeshore Ear Warmer! It is knit flat, using slipped stitches to create selvedge edges and two contrasting lines that add clean architectural texture to the ear warmer. The front twist is created when seaming the garment, which is explained in detailed steps and corresponding pictures in this pattern.
