winter crochet accessories: cute earmuffs, granny square scarf, & leg warmers | free patterns + video tutorials


Hi everyone! These are the written patterns for my youtube tutorial. I recommend watching the demonstrations first and then following along with the written instructions. Happy crocheting!

Abbreviations:

ss - slip stitch / sc - single crochet / increase - 2 sc in the same stitch / hdc - half double crochet / dc - double crochet

1. Earmuffs

Step 1: sc around a headband

Step 2: crochet 4 circle pieces with the following pattern...

- Make a slip knot, chain 4, ss into the 1st chain to make a circle, then insert the stitches of round 1 into the circle formed between the chains

- Round 1: 8 sc

- Round 2: 2 sc in every stitch (total 16)

- Round 3: 1 sc, increase (total 24)

- Round 4: 2 sc, increase (total 32)

- Round 5: 3 sc, increase (total 40)

- Round 6: 1 sc in every stitch (total 40)

Step 3: place two circle pieces around the headband and sc through the stitches on both piece to join the sides together

2. Leg warmers

- Make foundation hdc until you have the length you want for the leg warmer

- Crochet rows of hdc until the piece can wrap comfortably around your leg

- Repeat these steps to start and make a new row: chain 1, turn your work, hdc into the back loop of every stitch

- Once your piece is wide enough, hdc into the side edge of your piece to make the top border

- Fold your piece in half, then ss through the stitches on both pieces to close the sides of the leg warmer

- Repeat this around the bottom edge of the piece to make a shell border: ss, skip a space, 5 dc in the same space, skip a space

- Ss and fasten off to end your work

3. Granny square

Crochet 24 squares (or more/less depending on the size you want) with the following pattern

Some abbreviations/steps to know before starting...

1 cluster = 3 dc 

Insert in every chain 3 space = 1 cluster + chain 3 + 1 cluster

Insert in every chain 1 space = 1 cluster

- Make a magic ring

Round 1:

- Chain 3 (this counts as our 1st dc of round 1), 2 dc, chain 3

- Repeat 3 times: 1 cluster + chain 3

- Ss into the 3rd chain

Round 2:

- Chain 4

- Repeat 3 times: in the chain 3 space *cluster + chain 3 + cluster* / chain 1

- In the last chain 3 space: cluster + chain 3 + 2 dc

- Ss into the 3rd chain

Round 3:

- Chain 3 + 2 dc

- Repeat 3 times: in the chain 3 space *cluster + chain 3 + cluster* / chain 1 / 1 cluster in the chain 1 space / chain 1

- In the last chain 3 space: cluster + chain 3 + cluster + chain 1

- Ss into the 3rd chain

Round 4:

- In the last chain 3 space: cluster + chain 3 + cluster

- 2 dc in the same space as the chain 4

- Ss into the 3rd chain

Round 5:

- Chain 3 + 2 dc + chain 1

- In the chain 1 space: cluster + chain 1

- Repeat 3 times: in the chain 3 space *cluster + chain 3 + cluster* / chain 1 / 1 cluster in the chain 1 space / chain 1 / 1 cluster in the chain 1 space / chain 1 / 1 cluster in the chain 1 space / chain 1

Hi everyone! This is the written pattern for my youtube tutorial  (please refer to it for all the demonstrations). I've included timestamps from the video so you can refer to video demonstrations if you're confused about a specific part.

Hi everyone! Here's the written pattern for rounds 1-12 of my heart cushion cover. You can find the demonstration/steps for rounds 1-5 and  how to read this pattern and make the stitches in my youtube tutorial . Abbreviations: ch - chain / sc - single crochet / hdc - half double crochet / dc - double crochet / ss - slip stitch Please note that  the steps on ending each round and attaching a new color to your work  (ss + ch 1)  are explained with demonstrations in my youtube tutorial.

how to crochet a cute bunny | free pattern + video tutorial

Image
Hi everyone! This is the written pattern for my YouTube tutorial . Please refer to the video for demonstrations if you're confused. This is a very repetitive pattern, so follow the same steps shown to crochet all the rounds. Once you're done, you can add some ribbons & bows to make your bunny look even cuter - happy crocheting! Note:  all the pieces are worked in continuous rounds, so don't forget to place a stitch marker in the first stitch of every round and track your rounds.  To make crocheting this bunny (and other amigurumi projects!) easier, I recommend downloading the  Row Counter app . I love using the counter to keep track of my rounds and the highlighter to easily find the steps I'm working on. You can import this pattern to the app and start crocheting!
