Materials & Tools Needed

  • Three Shades of Anchor Cotton Threads (Size 20 or similar)
    • Suggested: Dark, Medium, and Light shades for the ombré effect.
  • 1 mm Crochet Hook
  • Embroidery Needle
  • Plastic Beads
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Pliers
  • Earring Hooks
  • Pair of Scissors

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Make the Crochet Flower

Each earring consists of stacked crochet flowers to form the ombré design.

  1. Begin with the Dark Shade of Blue (bottom flower).
    • Step 1: Start by making a magic circle.
    • Step 2: Chain 3 (this counts as the first chain in your pattern).
    • Step 3: Inside the magic circle, work 2 double crochets.
    • Step 4: Chain 3 and slip stitch into the magic circle. This completes the first petal.
  2. Continue to create five petals:
    • Repeat Chain 3 → 2 double crochets → Chain 3 → Slip stitch into magic circle until you have 5 petals. Ensure the petals are evenly spaced.
  3. Once complete:
    • Pull the tail yarn tight to close the magic circle.
    • Cut the working yarn, leaving a small tail.
  4. Add a bead to the flower:
    • Thread the tail through an embroidery needle.
    • Sew a plastic bead to the center of the flower. Turn the flower over and secure the bead by tying a knot at the back.
    • Trim the tail close to the knot for a clean finish.

2. Create Additional Flowers for the Ombré Effect

Repeat the flower-making process for the other two colors (Medium and Light shades) to form the ombré gradient. You should end up with:

  • 1 Flower in Dark Blue.
  • 1 Flower in Medium Blue.
  • 1 Flower in Light Blue.

3. Assemble the Flowers

  1. Arrange the flowers in your desired ombre order—generally Light Blue (top)Medium Blue (middle)Dark Blue (bottom).
  2. Use a hot glue gun:
    • Apply a small amount of glue to the top edge of the Dark Blue flower (bottom flower).
    • Position the Medium Blue flower above it and press gently to secure.
    • Repeat this process for the Light Blue flower, gluing it to the top edge of the Medium Blue flower.
  3. Alternative method:
    • Instead of gluing, you can sew the flowers together using a needle and thread for extra durability.

4. Add the Earring Hook

  1. Take an earring hook and open its loop using pliers.
  2. Insert the loop into the topmost flower (Light Blue flower).
  3. Close the loop securely with your pliers, ensuring the hook is attached firmly.

Finishing Tips

  • Optional: Add extra beads to the bottom of the earrings for added embellishment.
  • Ensure all knots are tight and excess thread tails are trimmed neatly.
  • Experiment with different colors for a variety of looks!
