Add a touch of whimsy to the Morning Walk Earwarmer with this cute and creative update. Featuring a glamorous beaded edging, the Evening Stroll Earwarmer uses varying heights of crochet stitches to create shaping that is narrower at the back of the neck to ensure a comfy, stay-put fit. Ribbing along the sides creates an elastic fabric that will fit a variety of head sizes. This is a great project for treating yourself to a luxury yarn. Quick to work up, you can make it and wear it the same day.
