Free Crochet Pattern: Circle Wire Earrings
By Rachel Choi – 5 Comments
Have you tried crocheting with wire yet? Here’s the perfect pattern for your first wire project! The pattern is a simple circle, made in two rounds. While the pattern is super easy, the tricky part is getting the feel for crocheting with wire. You will make all the stitches the same way you would if you were to crochet with regular yarn or thread. But the stiffness of the wire will give your hands a workout. The large crochet hook will help you crochet with the wire more easily and help to create a lacy look. Once you get the hang of crocheting with wire, try adding beads to your earrings too!

Where can you find this white wire at? I can only find the silver or aluminum colored wire.
The wire in the sample photo is silver. Depending on your computer screen or perhaps the lighting in the photo it may make it look white.
@Rhonda…….I found several colors of 26 gauge wire at Michael’s today. It was in the Jewelry Department. The brand is: Bead Landing. 30 yards for $3.69. They had silver, gold, copper, black. Besure to use your coupon. Hope this helps.
Love these! Thank you!
