Zulu Tri-Wing Earrings

Instructor: Karen Morris

Class Description:

New! These lightweight, 3-dimensional earrings that resemble little pagodas are a variation of the Zulu Tri-Wing stitch. Originating in Africa, the stacked structure forms three "wings" that give a fabulous texture, like a tiny bottle brush! Choose some wacky color combinations and find out why I'm wearing these earrings every day!
