These are Pinkie Earrings from https://www.facebook.com/Tattingbox. They are tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Peacock Blues. I have 2 more pair to make, but on clip-on earrings. They don't take long to tat. And I couldn't find tear-drop beads so I improvised and skipped the seed beads. :) They looks fairly elegant in real life. :)

They do look nice, I like. The way the rings go from small to large, very neat

Very elegant in vibrant blue!
I really like the peacock blue, these look nice.
Thank you everyone!! :)
These are gorgeous. Is there a pattern for them somewhere as I'm new to tatting and I can't quite break down how they are made.
Hi Helen, thanks for the comment!! :) There is a pattern on the facebook page of Tatting Box- here: https://www.facebook.com/Tattingbox
You may have to look a bit cuz' the pattern was posted a little while back and I don't see the pattern anymore, but it could just be me. If you message the person I am sure they would share it with you. :)
The pattern is just rings and chains so it's not too hard, just a little odd when making the chains go around the rings. You make a ring then chain around half the ring, then make another ring and chain around half of it, and continue to the end, move the beads into place, then chain up the other side around each other half of the ring to the top and then make the top ring. :)
Hi God's Kid, one of many I believe! Thanks for the response. I can't see the pattern either as I checked facebook but after reading your description I think I could experiment and see what I could come up with. It would be good practice for me no matter what the result and a nice challenge. Thanks again and all the best to you.
Helen, I could try and draw up a diagram to try and make it easier to understand. I will try and do that today. I have been sick since Sunday and haven't done anything since then. I will try and have it up tonight(I don't have a drawing program-nor do I know how to use one, but I will do what I can). :)
