Meet Amber Bliss Calderón

Amber has been crocheting since she was 8 years old. At 11, her grandma taught her to read patterns and make doilies. She hasn’t put her hook down since. Her favorite items to crochet are jewelry and amigurumi toys for her children. Recently, she discovered a passion for creating crocheted garments, but she will never lose her obsession for designing crocheted earrings.  When she isn’t crocheting, she is caring for her two children (ages 9 and 6), hanging out with her husband. (usually watching Netflix or devouring some spectacular dinner he’s created), and teaching English as a Second Language to international university students in Portland, Oregon.

Three Stars Crochet Earrings

Earrings are my favorite crochet makes. They are quick and easy and fun. In one day, you can make new accessories for every day of the week. You just need some thread, a small hook and a few additional supplies to get started. These make great gifts for the holidays. If you crochet for friends, they’ll love these earrings. If you’re a seller, try them out for your holiday markets. I hope you enjoy making and wearing these lightweight delightful stars!

Pattern Notes

• All directions are written in American Crochet Terms.
• Gauge is not essential for this project, but tight stitches will result in an earring that holds its shape better.
• When crocheting into your magic circle, make sure you are crocheting over two strands of thread: the circle and the tail. Keep your tail long enough to adjust (pull tight) the magic circle at the end.
• When slip stitching to complete the earring, insert your hook in the stitch from back to front, pull the loop of your last stitch through to the back, and complete your slip stitch on the backside of the earring.
• This pattern can be worked in any size crochet thread and appropriate hook. Experiment with different size thread/yarn and hooks to achieve smaller or larger stars.
