Courtney Earrings Free Crochet Pattern – Earrings For Spring

Courtney Earrings free crochet pattern by DivineDebris.com

Happy April friends! Is it all Spring looking where you are? It’s definitely rainy April here. I keep hoping to see a change in weather but it hasn’t arrived yet. So, instead I’m going to ready myself for Spring with this week’s new pattern – the Courtney Earrings crochet pattern.

Ok, ok. I know that for a lot of people, this pattern is going to be an immediate “nope” because of that small crochet hook. But I’m telling you, these earrings are so easy that you could make them in a few minutes and then glare at the tiny hook for days after. Set it aside for however long you need, teach it who’s boss. Because you can make these earrings in under 30 minutes. When I was working on this pattern (after finding the photo in my FB album) I made 3 pairs of earrings in one day. Takes no time. I promise 🙂

Anyway… A week ago I asked on both Facebook and Instagram which people would rather see, the Emma or Courtney earrings – an overwhelming amount of people wanted the Courtney Earrings. They were the clear winner. Like, whoa! Winner. So I set out to make the earrings and see if there were ways to dress up this very simple design.

I added some beads, I did 2 colors, and I think later I’m going to add some fringe some of the other earrings. Basically I wanted to show you all the fun you could do with this design. Ooh! And I used DMC Floss for the yellow ones, because they have some lovely colors that I don’t have in cotton thread. Better still, you can make one pair a skein of Floss, so that’s handy right? So very many options to make each an every pair of the Courtney Earrings unique and special.

I hope that the options I’ve shown here have inspired you (and the small hook doesn’t dissuade you from trying this pattern). And if you’re like me and you’re stuck at home trying to think of new projects to try, I hope you give this design a shot. And if you find you like them, give some of my other earring patterns a try.

Stay healthy and safe friends <3

-Finishing-
Like I do with all my earrings, I stiffened these with fabric stiffener. Just wet them down with the stiffener (I dilute it with water some) and lay them flat to dry completely. When they’re dry, attach the findings and wear.

Do you have ad-block on? Or have you tried opening the pattern in a different browser? This is a photo tutorial, so the instructions are after each photo if that helps.

Oh the final round, the slip sts are not worked as a join but as a st within the round. I hope that helps.

Hi there! This is a photo tutorial, with the instructions falling below each photo. I'm not having any trouble viewing it, perhaps your ad-block is preventing it from loading?

I love your pattern! What brand of stiffener do you use? When I have used stiffeners in the past, they dull the shine of the thread. Do you brush it only on the back or all over? April

Hiya, love this pattern but a little confussed on when the chain one counts as a stitch and where to join in rounds starting with chain one. Do a sl st to the chain one please?

As the notes say, the "ch 1 at the beginning of some rows does not count as a stitch" which is because some of the rows start with a ch3 or ch6. When you join, you slip st into the first st: the sc. I hope that helps :)
