My first crocheted earrings!

[aliciasjoy]

mythunderbird, I used a size 6 steel hook. It was the smallest I could handle. I think it would work with a larger hook, the stitches would just be more open. The wire I used is very fine.

I just went into the craft room to compare and it's comparable to one strand of embroidery floss.

WOW!!! they are gorgeous!...i know this sounds ridiculous but i had no idea that you could crochet with wire:blush

Oooooh, preeeeeeeeeeeeety! My first attempt was a dismal failure, but I will eventually try again.

[jaclim]

wow!

Beautiful! I have been looking at wire crochet, but haven't taken the leap.

[aliciasjoy]

Oh, I say go for it! The worst that will happen is you recycle a wad of silver.

I have a ziploc baggie full of my metal mishaps.

I can't crochet with thread for beans, it makes me miserable, but the wire is manageable in that it didn't flop all over the place!

These are fantastic! What a great idea!

[CindyJ]

Those are beautiful! I've wanted to try crochet with wire for awhile.

[Katandia]

I dont know how I missed this thread but those are some very beautiful and delicate looking earings I've yet to try crocheting with wire but you make it look so beautiful I just have to try =)

 

Where do you get your silver wire from? (haha, I just found your reply on websites of where to order it from ) I wouldn't know where to begin on supplies
