#6, about 527, but that’s just an estimate from looking at the photo. It would vary with the size of the balls and the tool used for the strokes…so treat it as a ballpark figure.
On a more personal note, this crafter IS a lot better at crochet than grammar. That’s not bad work. Dang it, Regretsy, stop giving me ideas!
I was thinking about taking a wire crochet class at my local bead shop. I’m having second thoughts now. Sounds like more of an indoctrination into the oldest profession instead of an innocent jewelry class.
Okay, I must admit, when I saw the title of this post in my twitter feed I was expecting something horrible like pink dye for labia.
I’m relieved it’s only hand job earrings.
The seller is from Latvia. Believe it or not, slang expressions referring to sex acts are not covered in the average English as a second language course.
#38, I own a pattern for a crocheted pearl necklace — Annie’s Attic, IIRC — so yeah, she probably could. (I checked out her shop and she has at least one necklace made from crocheted beads, though they aren’t white).
Great, now I’m imagining a crocheted pearl necklace where the “beads” are shaped like sperm. Dang you for bringing out the pervert in me, Regretsy! Dang you all to heck!
You know, for this price, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to go ahead and buy the hand-job now, and set it aside for when you really aren’t in the mood, (or the arthritis is kicking up)and then you’ve got one in “the bag” for a rainy day.

Before she does the hand-job on the crocheted beads, they are a lovely shade of blue.
November 5, 2010 at 1:41 pm
Looks like low hangers.
November 5, 2010 at 1:43 pm
I’m guessing the happy ending will cost more than $4.
November 5, 2010 at 1:43 pm
LET GO OF THE BALLS WHEN THEY TURN THIS SHADE OF PINK!
November 5, 2010 at 1:44 pm
These rub me the wrong way.
November 5, 2010 at 1:45 pm
CROCHETERS:
Aproximately how many stokes would be needed for this hand job…?
November 5, 2010 at 1:45 pm
I had to give up crocheted hand-jobs because of the arthritis.
Okay, I lied. I never crocheted hand-jobs. I knitted them. And I did have to give them up because of the arthritis.
November 5, 2010 at 1:46 pm
I’d like to get them in honor of my husband… do they come in Serbian?
November 5, 2010 at 1:47 pm
Pink balls are a sign of too much manscaping
November 5, 2010 at 1:48 pm
Mrs Panther sure has Pink whipped. She carries these around in her purse

November 5, 2010 at 1:52 pm
This may be one occasion “crotched” is more appropriate than “crocheted”.

#16, I tried wire crochet and it was dreadful.
November 5, 2010 at 2:20 pm
#16 LOL You are quite right people who crochet are called Hookers!!
November 5, 2010 at 2:28 pm
The economy must be bad if even your hand jobs are on sale.
November 5, 2010 at 2:29 pm
Well for wearing it’s obvious that they’ll hang low, but I only want them if they also wobble to and fro.
November 5, 2010 at 2:31 pm
haahaa,i got thumbs down for Serbian [balls]… wait til I tell my husband that is unanimous.
November 5, 2010 at 2:32 pm
Handi-work, hand-job, same thing. Last night I showed my boyfriend my handiwork.
November 5, 2010 at 2:36 pm
I just showed my husband my comments, he doesn’t think they are funny either. He said, “Besides, i keep my shit tight.” True dat.
November 5, 2010 at 2:39 pm
Why do people think that women like balls hitting them in the face? Or the side of the head?

#25 you should update your name to Zombie June Clever
November 5, 2010 at 2:55 pm
She has a nice touch and for all that handwork, the price is pretty low ball.
November 5, 2010 at 2:58 pm
Do these come with some type of complimentary gift sack?
November 5, 2010 at 3:06 pm
Cute craft but as for the description– she blew it.

wow. you guys are really going balls out with the snark today.
November 5, 2010 at 3:32 pm
Ouch! They’re pierced.
November 5, 2010 at 3:44 pm
Is this for Testicular Cancer Awareness month? If it comes with a matching bracelet that says “SAVE THE NUTS/I LOVE HUEVOS,” I’m sold.
November 5, 2010 at 3:47 pm
If that is her hand-job I wonder about these in her shop……

November 5, 2010 at 3:52 pm
maybe this is to promote breast cancer awareness instead … well they could have charged more for that…

wonder if she could crochet me a pearl necklace?
November 5, 2010 at 5:38 pm
The right one hangs a little lower than the left, of course.
November 5, 2010 at 5:49 pm
I was expecting a vagina. I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was a reference to testicles.
You know you’ve been on Regretsy too long when testicle shaped earrings are a pleasant surprise.

November 5, 2010 at 7:21 pm
Your satisfaction is her hand job?
November 5, 2010 at 8:05 pm
When ESL classes don’t prepare you for real life — Regretsy to the rescue!
November 5, 2010 at 8:32 pm
Nice jewels…
November 6, 2010 at 2:05 pm
I always knew I needed to grow a pair, but I just realized I can crochet a pair instead.
November 7, 2010 at 2:45 pm
Shit … these things are so damned well made and finished off perfectly.
And it’s no mean skill to be able to crochet a perfect testi …. er … ball. That’s incredible!
And for only FOUR dollars! I can’t find it in my heart to be snarky. I just lost my moxie here. I’m wallowing in admiration ….

PERFECT just got the dog fixed and was in the market for notices SOLD
November 7, 2010 at 9:28 pm
Nuticles not notices damn spell check
November 8, 2010 at 5:10 am
A crotchier?
Yeah that was bad.

November 8, 2010 at 9:55 am
I guess I meant, “two in the bag.”
November 8, 2010 at 1:55 pm
@52 – two in the hand are worth more than in the bush…
