It’s May! A new month means new patterns here and you know what, I’m super excited about that. I have been wearing these earrings for a minute and they just make me so happy, because they’re still. I hope you’re ready for the Stuffed Mushrooms Earrings Pattern.

I like to make earrings quite a bit and every couple of months I try to release a new pattern. I started making earrings years ago because they work up fast and ensure you can wear crochet any time it strikes you. No need to hide your crochet when it gets warm. Ya know? And these earrings… well they were inspired by last month’s C2C Mushroom square that I just loved.

And can I say these earrings grow on you? Because they totally do! I did these ones in traditional colors but I also have some larger ones I’m using to make a wall-hanging. I’m just making the individual mushrooms in bulky weight yarn and then I’m going to sew them to a banner. Now those are not red caps but yellow or variegated… I even have a purple I’m going to use. That’s what makes this pattern so fun and versatile – you get to choose the adventure you want to go on! What a blast, right?

I hope you have fun making these earrings or if you make it into a tiny amigurumi using any other weight yarn, I’d love to see that too. I bet those would be just as cute. It’s a quick and simple pattern, so you can experiment as you’d like. Ooh! A garland would be so cute… so many ideas. Do I know any friends who like mushrooms?

Anyway… I hope you like this pattern and give it a try.
