Adding a bead gives it a touch of glamour while the shimmer of the yarn speaks volumes of elegance.

    Looks really pretty, thank you for the pattern, did you need to block the earrings to maintain shape?

    • Hi Divya, you’re very welcome!

      No, I didn’t block them. They are pretty tight stitches and therefore hold up well, but if you want to block them, then go right ahead. It would work just as well if not better.

    I’m having a hard time putting them together. Is there any way I can get a clear description on how to put them together.

    • Amy says:

      Hello Marilyn,
      Each circle is connected with slip stitches. You slip stitch the working loop of circle one into the opposite end of circle two (meaning opposite end from circle two’s working loop) and then back into circle one. Then you do the same for circle three. Does this help?

      Happy Crocheting,
      Amy
