I know it’s not Tuesday…but I didn’t think you guys would mind having this weeks pattern early!
damn those are cute!!
Thanks so much for sharing, those are adorable. And I’m pretty ready for cherry-picking season already. Maybe making a pair or two of these will tide me over until then.
these are super cute. i have been exploring crocheted/knitted items for jewelry and you totally read my mind.
I really love these. Can you show me how to make them in person? Hmmm…maybe I should buy them already made from you instead!
These are so fun and simple! I just sat here and crocheted myself a cherry in like 5 minutes. Thanks for sharing!
Just lovely… Thank you for sharing the pattern, I might give it a try since I already have the hook in my hand…
These are too cute! I’ll definately try this once i get the hang of the stitches.

They are delicate but I wouldn’t dare to wear them. I think I could use them as accessories om my bag.
Oh,awesome! I can think of about 20 things I could do with these babies (besides earrings)
Hi, thanks for sharing, I´m just translating the pattern to german crochet terms. What does the Abbreviation mm after each round mean?
Bye, Kati
Too Cute! Cherry season has just finished here in New Zealand

[Via Craftzine] Hella cute. My daughter *loves* cherries, and recently got her ears pierced. Thank you *SO* much!!!!
These are lovely! We go cherry picking in Brentwood each year, I’ll have to make some for our next trip.
Too darn cute. Just what I was looking for!!
Thank you.
