Corina's Earrings

I'm a bit late to the party... as this pattern was apparently published 5 years ago?  Or maybe even before?  However, I have just discovered these earrings and thought how pretty they look.  So I made myself a pair.

A really lovely pattern by Corina Meyfeldt which can be found here.






This pattern is made with just one shuttle and is all rings.  Clever.  I made three-bead picots instead of one bead as in the pattern.  And I scaled mine down a bit (my rings have fewer stitches than the ones in the pattern).

I was wearing a check dress today and needed some earrings to match.  These are perfect.


I can see these pretty earrings are all over internet so I'm sure many of you have made them already... but if you haven't, I highly recommend the pattern.

Best wishes,
Frivole

    Absolutely wonderful!!! :)
    I made a pair in Lizbeth Patriot twist thread and they are not as nice as others, but they turned out good in design!! ;)

      I highly recommend the pattern. So nice to work them with just one shuttle. I hide the first end in the first ring and use a magic loop for the last end and that's it, they're done. What takes longest is threading the beads! :-)

    They're on my to- do list, but more for the technique as I have trouble wearing earrings. Isn't it wonderful that tatted accessories can be made to match any outfit? Your earrings are beautiful!

      I do love earrings and wear some every day so as you say, it's great to be a able to make earrings to match any outfit really! The technique is simple, just rings and you reverse work in between but the effect of superimposing them really looks lovely. I already made another pair this morning... in my favourite turquoise of course! :-)
