To make really fast and easy Wreath Earrings, use the same washers as are in this month's earrings pattern and use all 6 strands of green embroidery floss and a size 11 steel hook and work 20 sc in the ring then for the next round work the following all the way around. Ch4, sc in next sc. Join w/slst to the first sc when you get back to the index.htmlbeginning. Then fasten off, weave all ends into back of work and put a tiny bow on the wreath using red embroidery floss and attach to ear wires.
