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:
- Chain 4
- In the chain 1 space: 1 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
- 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
- In the last chain 3 space: cluster + chain 3 + cluster
- In the last chain 1 space: cluster + chain 1
- Ss into the 3rd chain
