Dainty Butterflies



Each of these lovely butterflies requires only 5 yards of cotton thread and about 5-7 minutes to crochet!




But number of ways one can use them is endless. For instance, I can imagine how darling they would look as appliqués on a little girl’s dress. Or maybe as hairclips in her hair.



 I can also picture such butterfly as a decoration on a small wrapped present. A butterfly pin would look lovely on a hat or a purse.



They are quite small (only about two inches across) and can be used for handmade cards and lots and lots of other craft projects!
