Crochet Shell Lace Earring
I love shell stitch is crochet. It has an elegant look. A shell in crochet is basically just a group of stitches worked into one base stitch.
These will be a simple and earthy accessory to your summer wardrobe.
This is a simple crochet pattern. It can be made in an hour and a good pattern to start with for the beginners.
The beads give a contrast to the crochet shell earring.
