Round Headphone Ear Cushions
Are your headphone cushions shedding? Make your own replacement ear pads with this easy to follow pattern designed for round headphone ear pads.
The pattern goes through how to make the covers bigger to suit the size of ear pads that you have.
Skill level: Easy
Yarn needed: Worsted Weight
A free version of this pattern can be found on my blog and a video tutorial is also avaialable on my YouTube Channel.
Measurements
The ear pads themselves measure about 5cm in diameter without the cushion. They are also an exact circle which makes the pattern really easy and the pattern also goes through how to make them larger to fit the size that you have.
What you will need:
Yarn: In total, approx 10 gram / 17 yards / 16 meters of worsted weight yarn. I used Paintbox Recycled Cotton Worsted in Honey (Colour A) and Steel Blue (Colour B). See below for other sustainable yarn suggestions.
Hook: Metric: 4.5mm | UK & Canada: 7 | US: G-7 | Japan: 7.5/0
Scissors: For cutting the ends.
Stitch Marker
Elastic Band (optional)
