Happy Friday, friends! Yesterday I completed a project I have been thinking about doing for a while: granny square earrings. I have only crocheted earrings once before (these peacock feathers), so it’s still an area where I am new. I hesitated because I wasn’t sure if they would really fly. BUT I like them, so I guess that’s all that really matters, right? Plus, they work up quickly, which you may know, I LOVE.
