I love butterflies! Thank you for posting these patterns. My favorite is the yellow one. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute pattern!! Thanks for posting it!! It would also make a VERY cute bookmark - just add a chain at the bottom between the wings, make a small loop, chain back up the chain and reattach to the butterfly - then add fringe to the newly made loop at the bottom - viola! AWESOME!!! Thanks again for sharing! I may have to make several families of these using different hooks/threads/yarns...I love butterflys!!
