Apple or Pumpkin Earrings Free Crochet Pattern

Apple Earrings free crochet pattern by DivineDebris.com

It’s back to school season again and I’ve been talkin’ about all that fun with the awesome people who visit with me on Facebook. Last week I posted the Apple Ring pattern and it was well received so I thought I’d post another apple pattern (spoiler: one coming next week too!). Actually, I thought I posted this pattern last year because originally it was a pumpkin pattern that works well as an apple too. So, you can make a pair of earrings for the teacher or a pair of pumpkins for the pumpkin-aholic in your life.

Don’t forget to check out more of my Falloween patterns here.

I hope you’re feelin’ Fall patterns with apples, pumpkins, leaves, and pretty warm colors because they’re coming!

Thank you to all my Patreon supporters.

You can purchase an ad-free downloadable pdf for this pattern in my Ravelry shop to help me make more free patterns for this blog.

Finishing
Once each earring is done, use fabric stiffener to harden your earrings, which I like to dilute with water and apply with a soft paint brush. Once both earrings are dried, usually overnight for me, use your jewelry pliers to attach jump rings to your earrings. I attach the jump rings to one of the scs from the stem, which makes the earrings hang at an angle, which is super cute if you ask me. I like to use 2 jump rings and a french hook for a little length and dangly-ness.

Tada! I hope you like this pattern and give it a try. Maybe give it to a teacher or two you know!
