Crochet Pattern: Alora Earrings
By Candace – 4 CommentsThis pair of crochet earrings is as fun to wear as they are to make. The chain lace is simple yet pretty, and it’s quick to make. The open shape gives you a variety of options when it comes to how to wear them. Place your earwires in different parts of the earring and orient them differently to see how the look changes. For a popular style, try adding a chain to the open ends and dangling them lace side down. |

Love your patterns for earrings! I was wondering do you use starch, glue or fabric stiffener on your earrings?
Thanks,
Donna
Hi Donna,
Some of them have a tight enough gauge that leaves them pretty stiff on their own, but for ones like these, a stiffening agent definitely helps.
I really like your earring patterns. Thank you for this post.
Thanks, and you’re welcome!
