Macramé is all the rage again, and it isn't restricted to make wall hangings any longer. So I can't wait to share you this macramé spiral earrings. While making the knitted earring patterns, you'll merely be asked to learn two traditional Chinese knots: the larks head knot and half hitch knot.

Step 1: Materials Needed to How to Make Knitted Earrings Patterns

1MM Nylon Thread

4MM Light Cyan Glass Pearl

Jump rings

Earring Hooks

Lighter

Step 2: Start to Make the Macramé Spiral Earrings

2nd, use one nylon thread as the holding thread, another two threads as the working thread, and then use each working threads to tie a larks head knot around the holding thread;

3rd, add a jump ring to the left holding thread;
