With warm weather fast approaching, (I can’t believe it’s almost march!I thought I’d do a quick pattern for these adorable citrus earrings. I made orange earrings, but you don’t have to, you could make lemons, limes, grapefruit, or another kind of citrus. For this pattern I used embroidery thread, but you could use crochet thread, embroidery thread splits super easy so it can be frustrating to work with but you can get a small amount so you don’t have to get 500+ yards of crochet thread for something that you only need a yard of yarn.

Materials:

Embroidery thread in 3 colours: White, and the two colours for the fruit (I used a brighter orange and an orangey-yellow.

2mm Crochet Hook

Yarn Needle

Stitch Markers (safety pins or scrap yarn also works great!)
