Earrings made of yarn, crocheted stitch by stitch: they are the size of costume jewellery and as light as a feather. That is their first strength. Here is how to choose and wear them, with our crochet earrings.
Why they are so light
Yarn weighs far less than metal or stone. A good-sized crochet earring does not pull on the lobe: you can wear it from morning to night, even if your ears are sensitive to weight.
How to choose the shape
- Round or rosette : softens strong features; the mustard yellow rosette is one example.
- Oval or medallion : lengthens the face; the pearl grey medallions stay understated.
- Fan or leaf : adds movement; thecamel fan is the most natural.
- Interlocking hoops : bold and modern, like the orange and navy hoops.
How to choose the colour
On a plain outfit, a bright colour becomes the focal point: turquoise, mustard yellow, green. With a print, a neutral is enough: pearl grey, beige, camel. Two-tone earrings pick up two colours from the outfit.
What to wear them with
Tied-back hair shows them off. They go with linen, denim and summer dresses, but also with a plain jumper in winter. Avoid pairing them with a chunky necklace: they are enough on their own.
How to keep them in shape
Store them flat, in a box or a pouch, away from damp. If an earring loses its shape, reshape it with your fingertips. No perfume or water directly on them.
How to match them with other crochet pieces
A pair of earrings in the colour of a bandana, or close in tone to your crochet bag, pulls an outfit together effortlessly: the mustard yellow rosette with the mustard yellow bandana, the pearl grey medallion with the pearl grey bag, the camel fan with the camel bag with a wooden bead handle. Just avoid piling on three bright colours: one is enough.
