HOOP EAR RING 16

This is a pretty popular hoop ear ring that is also my best seller.  I have tried to make it in several ways, to keep each individual, unique and different.
Beads show off our creativity, so be adventurous.

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.
