The clever use of incomplete partial granny squares made in fine crochet thread helps to make these crochet necklace and crochet earring patterns an intricate yet surprisingly simple design, and the bright colours will really help them pop!

Necklace
All joins are made using jump rings. Using the photo as a guide, join a Small Granny Square to a Medium Granny Square, then join this to a Partial Granny Square. The Partial Granny Square should be joined at each side of the motif to the centre of the chain. Leave one loop of chain either side and attach the two Partial Granny Squares in Yarn C. Then leave six chain loops and attach a Small Granny Square at each side.
Earrings
Join the Small Granny Square to the bottom of a Partial Granny Square. Attach this to an earring hook using 2 jump rings to make sure the Earring is facing forward.
