Crocheted Jewelry

While learning how to crochet (see post on how my crochet journey started HERE), I stumbled across an idea for crocheted wire jewelry. Yep, you read that correctly! I was intrigued, and bought the supplies. Little did I know how much more jewelry I would be making. I now crochet jewelry as well as all the usual scarves, hats, etc. It is so different than what I thought I would be doing when I started my crocheting journey. But I love it! Here are a few of the things I have done so far in this new venture.

Crochet bracelets were some of the first crocheted jewelry projects I did. I like the simple elegance of this lacy pattern. I added a natural agoya shell button to finish it off and voila!

Crochet earrings were next on my list. From the dangled leaves to the pretty Valentine's Hearts, there are so many things you can crochet for earrings. I like this because you can take really anything you can crochet and attach it to an earring! So many possibilities, so little time!

I also crocheted with wire to make the earrings above. That was so different from what I had done previously. The wire is much more difficult to work with than yarn or crochet thread. You have to get a small enough gauge wire to bend easily. But then it starts cutting into your fingers as you crochet. I can only do so many pairs of wire earrings before having to stop for the day. But the result is so pretty and unique!

I can't wait to show you more of my creations!

Happy Crafting
