Two pairs of earrings

I'm very pleased with the orange and blue pair which I'll start testing today by wearing them. The other pair is worked in a number 40 Olympus (variegated) and a 40 Coats (?) but isn't as 'firm' as the others. Again I will test this pair out another day. They may be fine slightly stiffened. I think I may try another pair with drastic alterations to the stitch count and using a single number 80 thread. I feel it's worth playing with these a little longer!!!

  1. I really love the earrings. They are so pretty and look like they will hold up real well. The orange and blue colors you used, however, pose a problem for an Alabama girl! The University of Alabama colors are red and white. Auburn University, our arch rivals, are orange and blue!
