August's Adorn design, Butin Earring, was designed to complement June's pattern Butin Collar.  The earrings are based on FOUR stitches of knitting, with beads slipped up into a delicate swag.  It takes me about an hour to make a pair and they are addictive to make.... just sayin'.  There is even a video link provided in the pattern for attaching the earring finding!!!!  Play around with various yarns, wire, and beads for a completely different look.  Kits are available  if you don't have easy access to beads and findings.
