The Crochet Celtic Weave stitch is one of my all time favorite stitches. It is an intermediate stitch combo, with a number of different stitches used together, but the end result is so gorgeous!

The Yarn
For this project I used Lion Brand Heartland yarn. This is a #4 worsted weight yarn that is 100% acrylic and comes in a large array of colors. It is a very soft yarn, and the colors are so nice and vibrant. It can be machine washed and dried, making it one of the best yarns for hats, scarves, sweaters, and blankets!
Some alternative yarns I’d recommend would be:

Pattern Notes

Starting chain does not count as first st unless stated otherwise within the pattern.
To adjust width, increase by 2 until you reach a multiple of 4 that is your desired width. Celtic Weave section needs to be worked in a multiple of 4.
To customize length of earwarmer, adjust repeats of rows 16 and 17 before creating the decrease stitches. Increase and decrease on each end is approximately 4” long.
To make earwarmer more adjustable add two buttons to top end.

I’m thinking there must be a loop to fasten to the button(s)…but I’m not seeing that in the directions? Is it just me? 😄
Never mind! I see it now in row 49! 😄
I’m wondering where the loop goes for the second button. Row 45 I guess would have a ch 2 in the middle and skip those scs to line up with buttons on rows 3 and 7? At least I’m pretty sure that’s how it would math out with the space between the buttons but I’m not too confident about math in general since real world application doesn’t always work.
You only need one loop. Having the inner button is just an option for a tighter fit around the head.
