¿Cómo hacer criollas con tejido de punto de ladrillo?

Spring is back and so are our precious little birds to cheer us up. Discover below a new tutorial of creole earrings ! 

Step 1 : Birds beadweaving with a needle in brick stitch

Follow the pattern above using the brick stitch technique to create the two little birds. Decrease and increase techniques only are needed. You can find more info about these stitches in my Ginko leaf post.

Step 2 : Flowers and leaves on the creole earrings

We start by creating a first row of beads almost all around the creole ring. To do so, go through the first bead two times and position the bead perpendicular to the ring (1).

Thread a new bead. Go around the ring and go through the bead (2). Position the bead and pull the thread (3).

Repeat the operation for all the beads of the first row.

Now we will start making the flowers and leaves in brick stitch. Here is an example to make a leaf. This is actually the same as making a decrease at the beginning of the row. Thread on 2 beads and pick your needle below the thread crossing between the second and third bead of the previous row after the bead from which your thread is coming (1). Go through the second bead upwards (2). Go through the first bead downwards (3)and go to the second bead upwards again (4).

Your 2 beads should be well aligned now (5).Thread on one bead. Go through the bead of the previous row downwards (6) and through the one next to it upwards (7). Repeat this loop once again to secure this last bead (8). You have made one leaf.

Weave your way through the beadwork to create another leaf or a flower. Continue until you have done almost the full ring.

Step 3 : Assembly

Fix a jump ring at the top of the bird and about 2cm of chain. Fix a ring at the other extremity of the chain and connect it to the small hole at the top center of the creole. Fix the earwire to the creole using pliers. 

Repeat the operations for the second earring.
