Ear warmers: By casting on 16 stitches and working any pattern stitch above you can make an earwarmer. For double thickness cast on the original 30 sts and work the pattern long enough to go around the head(approx. 20" for an adult). Hold the piece with the short ends together and whip stitch. Then hold the long sides together and loosly whip stitch otgether to create a tube. Make a great warn ear warmer. Donate a few of these to your local homeless shelter or to the service people in the armed forces. Even a local child or family member would like one of these in the winter.
