    Ear warmers for hats

    I made 1 dozen the other day and have sold all but three, had one on my western hat yesterday, 18 degrees and wind blowing very hard, ears stayed nice and warm and hat never blew off, when you have the ear flaps pulled under your chin it acts like a stampede string. Major Moore
