Adelyn Earwarmer FREE #crochet pattern by #KaleidoscopeArtnGifts for the #HolidayStashdownCAL2015

This quick work up of an earwarmer was designed using Tunisian crochet for the #HolidayStashdownCAL2015. It contains just enough texture and interest to please a seasoned Tunisian crocheter but is also simple enough to be the perfect "starter" project for those wanting to learn Tunisian crochet. The FREE pattern below contains tutorial links to get you started.
