Check out the crochet hooks I recommend here.
This earwarmer is worked in rows.
The ch 1 does NOT count as a stitch. This is the turning chain, and will allow your edges to be nice and straight.
You’ll need about 30 grams, or 70 yards to make this earwarmer. This means you’ll be able to get a few earwarmers per ball of yarn, making it a great last-minute gift or craft fair idea!

f/o, leaving a 12 inch tail. To seam, bring the two ends together and whip stitch across. I like to do two whip stitches per single crochet stitch. This allows it to be extra durable, and better hidden.

After seaming, cut and weave in your ends. Enjoy!
