Hat with earflaps

Here comes the guide to a simple cap with earflaps

Do you know that? You buy the children new caps and put them on them and, conversely, are the ears free again? Yes? Then I have a great guide for you here. This beanie with earflaps is easy to crochet and embellish quickly with accessories. For example, I like to iron on an accessory. It also keeps your ears warm and does not slip away! If you want, pull at the end through the earflaps braided pigtails and so has cords to close.

Count 7 stitches to the left, tie the thread to stitch 8 again.

Depending on which pattern you left off in the previous round, you must now continue with each other. My last round was half double crochet. After each row we turn the work and crochet back.
