• You can adjust the hook size for slightly larger or smaller earrings.
• Suitable for confident beginners to intermediate crocheters familiar with basic amigurumi and small accessories.
• This earring can be adapted into other accessories, such as brooches or bag charms, by attaching different findings.

Skill Level

Confident Beginner / Early Intermediate
Basic knowledge of the following stitches is required: magic ring, chain, single crochet, double crochet, double treble crochet, slip stitch, and simple sewing for assembly.

Materials

• Amigurumi yarn in yellow (petals)
• Amigurumi yarn in brown (center)
• Crochet hook 1.5 mm
• Tapestry needle (for sewing in ends and attaching findings)
• Small earring hooks or earring findings of your choice (stud or dangle)
• Scissors
• Optional: small jewelry pliers

• Final flower: About 2.5–3 cm (1–1.2 inches) diameter when made with 1.5 mm hook and standard amigurumi yarn.
• Finished earring with hook: Approx 4 cm (1.5 inches) in length, size ideal for a small, delicate earring
  (Use finer thread or a smaller hook for even daintier results.)

Gauge

Gauge is not critical, but ensure your stitches are tight enough to maintain the structure.

Stitch Abbreviations

• mr = magic ring
• ch = chain
• sc = single crochet
• dc = double crochet
• tr = treble crochet (sometimes called double treble)
• sl st = slip stitch
• st(s) = stitch(es)
• picot = ch 1, sl st in previous stitch

Special Stitches

Magic Ring (mr)

Wrap yarn around fingers to form a loop, insert hook, pull up a loop, chain one (for sc) or two (for dc), then crochet required stitches into the ring. Pull the tail to tighten.

Picot

Made at the tip of each petal: chain 1, then slip stitch into the top of the previous stitch. This creates a pronounced, dimensional tip.

Crochet Instructions

Sunflower Center (Brown Yarn)

Round 1:

• Create a magic ring (mr).
• Into mr, work 6 sc.
• Close the ring tightly and join to the first sc with a sl st.
  (6 sts)

Round 2:

• Ch 1.
• In the same stitch as join, work 2 sc (first increase).
• In each stitch around, work 2 sc per stitch (total six increases).
• At end of round, you will have 12 sc.
  

  Save

• Join with a sl st.
• Fasten off, leaving a short tail to weave in.
  (Do not cut too short if you want to use it for sewing in later.)

Sunflower Petals (Yellow Yarn)

Setup:

• Join yellow yarn with a slip stitch in any stitch of the brown center.

Each Petal (repeat 6 times around):

• Ch 2.
• Into the same stitch:
  • 1 dc
  • 1 tr
    

    Save

• Ch 1, then sl st into the top of the previous tr (creates the picot point of the petal).
• Into the same stitch:
  • 1 tr
  • 1 dc
• Ch 2.
• In the next stitch of the sunflower center, sl st to secure the petal.
  

  Save

Repeat the above steps five more times, each in the next stitch around the center base. You should create 6 petals, each occupying a stitch and separated by the sl st.

On Final Petal:
On the sixth petal, after completing the last sl st, cut a long tail (for sewing or attaching the earring finding) and fasten off securely.

Save

Assembly & Finished Size

Finishing Petals:

• Use the tapestry needle and the long yellow tail to weave through the back of the flower, securing any loose ends.
• If necessary, tidy up the back by weaving in the brown and yellow tails, keeping them hidden.

Attaching Earring Finding:

• Thread the long tail up through the top of a petal (preferably at a picot tip for balance).
• Secure your earring hook or finding (stud or dangle) by threading the yarn firmly through the loop/ring of the hardware several times, then weaving back into the flower to knot and hide the end.
• If desired, use jewelry pliers to close the jump ring securely and add extra durability.

Repeat entire process to make a matching earring, ensuring both have petals pointing similarly and are consistent in size.

Blocking:
Press gently with a damp cloth or steam lightly to shape petals evenly if needed.

Save

Finished Size:
Each flower approx 2.5–3 cm diameter. With hook, total length 4 cm.
