How to Crochet A Gauge Swatch

Construction
The Twisted Wheat Earwarmer is crocheted flat with simple stitches. Once we’ve made our rectangle, we will join the edges with a twisted seam. You can make this with or without a gentle ribbing along the edge, as well.
I love simple, giftable projects like earwarmers. They’re perfect for using up leftover yarn! Check out the Honeycomb Earwarmer (available in regular crochet, Tunisian crochet, and knit) and the Autumn Wheat Earwarmer!
Special Stitches
Puff Stitch: Yarn over and insert your hook into the stitch/space. Yarn over again and pull up a long loop. Yarn over and insert your hook into the same stitch/space. Yarn over again and pull up a long loop (there are 5 loops on the hook). Yarn over and pull through the first 4 loops, yarn over and pull through the remaining loops.
Pattern Notes
- Sizes are written as: Newborn (Baby, Toddler, Child, Teen) (Adult Small, Medium, Large)
- A stitch marker at the beginning of the row or round is recommended.
- Work the first row of chains in the back humps.
- The instructions and stitch counts are given for the smallest size, with the larger sizes in brackets ( ).
- Before you dive into your project, take a moment to identify the stitch and row counts that match the size you're making. By highlighting or marking them, you'll save time and effort later on. Trust us, this small step will make a big difference in your knitting or crochet journey!

Repeat Rows 5-8.
Check the final width measurement of the earwarmer and add more/less rows, in an even row count, if needed. Then go to seaming.
Joining the Ends
We are going to do a seam that creates the twist in the ear warmer. While this fabric is reversible, start by laying the ear warmer in front of you with the right side facing.
Then, in your left hand, create a 'C' with the left end side of the ear warmer. With your right hand, create a backward 'C' with the right side of the ear warmer.
Now join the 'C' shapes together as shown below.
Next, using your tapestry needle, seam through all ear warmer edge layers, securing tightly. Once seamed, weave in the end, then flip inside out.
