BEADED EAR RING 10

I’ve been on a mad ear ring spree.. just making motifs and stringing them into ear ring hooks. This ear ring is a simple pattern – just with a lot of bling.

This blog has two patterns.. similar pattern.. different end results.

Please read through all my notes before you pick up your hook, so you know just where we're heading in our pattern.

In my patterns I work with the principle of stitch count and body measurement.

This means that you need to work the stitch count in pattern, till you get the measurement (length and/or width) that you need for your project.

My patterns have been inspired by this beautiful creation.. Just see how a different choice of yarn n beads can make a different end product - I've worked this pattern using the really fine embroidery floss-like Pearl yarn and see how delicate mine looks and how gorgeous the original is too :)

PATTERN 1

This is the first pattern and is relatively simple. You can keep it as simple as you wish, be reducing the number of beads, and therefore reducing the fussiness of work – but then of course, it also reduces the pizzazz of your product.

Decisions.. decisions.. ;)

Now you can start Round 1 with just the dc in it, or you can choose to start by adding a largish bead. To add bead, pass yarn through the bead and tie up neatly. Then pass the hook through the yarn that goes around bead and work the first round of stitches around that.

Depending on the yarn thickness, you end up with a different product every time.. how cool is that, right?

So I made both the straight start with dc and the one with the bead in centre. I worked sc around the beads, just to get a slightly closed look

Start Round 1 : with a magic circle and 18 dc in it.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

In the following round, we just work all round adding our beads.

So either you string them in before you start or string them along as you work.

Check the top of this blog for useful links on how to work with beads.

You can work a plain pattern, without adding the beads, and then go back with a fine needle and thread adding the beads after you are done as well.

Round 2 : sl-st into the 1^st dc ; (sc + bead + sl-st in the same st) ;

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

In the following round, we will work a hdc into the dc from Round 1. This will hold and show your bead off properly.

Round 3 : hdc into the 1^st dc of Round 1 ;

(ch 1, sk bead, hdc into the next dc from Round 1) ;

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

Round 4 : sl-st into the 1^st ch-1 sp , 2 sc in the same ch-1 sp ;

(sk next hdc, 2 sc in the next ch-1 sp)

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

In our final round, we will once again attach beads for half the round.

So let’s place markers if needed. We will be skipping the first 7 beads and the last 7 beads. We will work beads into all the other 4 beaded stitches from Round 2.

You can start by attaching the ear ring hook right now, or you can come back to attach it at the end.

Round 4 : sl-st past the 1^st 14 sts , (sc + bead in the next st ; sc in the next st) ; rep to) 3 times ; sl-st all the way to the 1^st st and join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

Attach the ear ring hook and ta da! you’re done with one beautiful beaded ear ring.

Fasten off and weave in ends.

PATTERN 2

This pattern is similar but has more beads and is a little more challenging.. I’d say as it has beads, it calls for Advanced skills

So with this pattern, we start with a bead in the centre. For this you will need to pass your hook through the bead, then loop in your yarn, pull it through and tie up at the other end. You will have a bead, and a yarn around it.. and we will work our first round in that yarn that goes around the bead. Got it?

Start Round 1 : with a magic circle and 9 sc in it.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

Round 2 : 2 sc in the 1^st sc and in each sc all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

In the following round we will add our beads. Please take a look at the links on top of this blog for a ‘how to’

Round 3 : hdc in the 1^st sc ;

(ch 1, sk next sc, hdc + add bead in next sc) ;

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

Round 4 : sc in the 1^st hdc ;

(2 sc in the ch-1 sp ; sc in the next hdc ) ;

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

Round 5 : 2 sc in the 1^st st ; sc in the next 2 st

(2 sc in the st ; sc in the next 2 st) ;

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st. (36 sts)

Once again, we will add beads in our following round.

Round 6 : hdc in the 1^st st ;

(ch 1, sk next st, hdc + add bead in next st ; hdc in the next 2 sts) ;

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

At this point your motif should be ready to fit inside the ear ring hoop, so let’s go ahead and attach the hoop now.

While working this round, loop stitches around the hoop and attach it as you work the pattern.

I have attached with every stitch so as to reduce the hoop showing through.

How do you do this ? well, the links above should help – but basically slip your hook into the stitch and ear ring hoop and then draw the yarn through both stitch and hoop to finish. It’s a little tricky for the first few stitches, but you’ll get the hang pretty quickly.

Round 7 : sc in the 1^st hdc ;

(2 sc in the ch-1 sp ; sc in the next 3 hdc ) ;

rep (to) all around.

Join with a sl-st to the 1^st st. (45 sts)

You can finish at this point – or do come along for the last border round.

Round 8 : sc in the 1^st sc ; sk next sc , 5 dc in the next sc ;

(sk next sc ; sc in the next 2 sc ; sk next sc , 5 dc in the next sc) ;

rep (to) all around and join with a sl-st to the 1^st st.

For a further little cuteness, work a ch-3 picot in the 3^rd dc of the 5-dc set.

The ch-3 picot is (ch 3, sl-st in the 3^rd ch from hk).
