Squooshy waffled warmness around the ears and neck, yum yum! Bee stitch is a stretchy textured knit which is only marginally more difficult than simple garter stitch but looks amazing.

With a simple twist half way this simple piece is the perfect option if you often wear your hair up or a beanie can’t contain your tresses. The bee stitch causes the edges to roll in, providing a soft edge to the earwarmer and a lovely roll if worn as a cowl about the neck.
