Crochet Toddler Earflap Beanie and Scarf

People (M) think I'm crazy for taking on this project but the minute I saw it, I envisioned Little Miss B in the cold, bundled up and  throwing snow. How cute right?

I was convinced she need one. In Southern California. You know, just in case, get a major snowstorm next week.

Since I had the yarn sitting around and the crochet hook I thought what the heck. And ended up crocheting this up in one night when it was like 90+ degrees outside. :)

The pattern comes from the Lion Brand Yarn website and is called the Speed Hook Earflap Hat and Scarf  (apologies if the website doesn't work, their website is finicky)

I read through the reviews and used a Q hook instead of an S, three different colored skeins of Vanna's Choice yarn (the patten calls for Microspun) and finished it within the night. Super easy. And fun for those with cold winters.

So cute. And hopefully practical soon ;)

Little Miss B is less than thrilled about it. I'm sure she'll grow to love it when her little ears and neck are cold ;)
