Get out your tiny needles and crochet thread… and if you’re over 40, get out your readers.
 
These are the perfect accessory for your Independence Day (or Memorial Day or Veterans Day or Armed Forces Day) celebration.
Knit on size 0 double-point needles with Aunt Lydia’s crochet thread, these Old Glory flag earrings take no time at all to work up. They’re stitched as one long mirror image of a flag, then folded over and whipstitched with gold thread to make them thick and reversible. And the best part of all… you don’t even have to weave in your ends. Just tuck them in as you sew up the edges of the flag.
