Crochet Earring Patterns: 6 Designs

Crochet earrings can be tiny thread motifs, long embroidery-floss accessories, or small colorful circles. These three original patterns list their finished sizes and materials so you can choose a project suited to the findings and scale you want.

Thread-weight projects like these need a much finer hook than yarn work, plus jewelry findings you’ll source separately.

Crochet earring patterns to explore

1. Quick and Easy Crochet Earrings

Rachel at Desert Blossom Crafts includes pastel and bright motifs. Each finished earring measures about 1.5 inches wide, a versatile everyday size that works with lightweight ear wires or studs.

2. Mint Spirit Earrings

Jade at Sweet Softies is a familiar-beginner project using embroidery floss. The finished earring is listed as six inches long, making it the longest, most statement-making design on this list rather than a small everyday stud.

3. Miniature Mandala Earrings

Olena at GoldenLucyCrafts uses size-10 crochet thread. The finished earrings measure about 1-5/8 inches, or 4 cm, with the mandala’s radiating rounds giving it more visual detail than a plain motif of the same size.

4. Crochet Flower Earrings

April Garwood at Banana Moon Studio works an Irish rose motif about 1¾ inches across in size-10 crochet thread on a 1.65mm steel hook, building layered petals over five rounds in back-loop-only stitches. The back-loop-only technique leaves a ridged texture between each round of petals, giving the rose more dimension than a flat motif.

5. Crochet Flower Medallion Earrings

Jennifer at Fiber Flux makes a 2 by 2 inch flower medallion in number-3 crochet thread on an F/3.75mm hook, with a six-petal second round assembled onto jump rings and ear wires. The two-round build keeps the motif quick to finish, and the flat medallion shape sits close to the ear rather than dangling like the longer designs above.

6. Flower Crochet Earrings

Maya Kuzman at The Little Treasures uses only chain and slip stitches to link five-petal flowers with 10-chain lengths, finishing about 11 centimeters, or 4.3 inches, long, the longest, simplest-stitch design on this list. Because it only uses chain and slip stitch, it’s also the fastest project here to pick up if you’ve never crocheted jewelry before.
