These are adorable and I'm making them for my niece but she's older and the larger one would be better for her. :) I'm assuming that the larger pattern would just be bigger dc clusters on rnd 1 and therefore more st in rnd 2 in the ch sp but would love confirmation on that. Both of the links to the other patterns are not operational anymore. Thank you. :) And thank you for the lovely free pattern!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7305089771170290366.post-67956657103494070312015-03-30T20:03:14.975-07:002015-03-30T20:03:14.975-07:00Thanks for the pattern I am going to make a bunch ...Thanks for the pattern I am going to make a bunch of these for my nieces and the daughters of my staff members.

Mine will most likely end up being hair accessories too. I've struggled to find a butterfly pattern I liked so thank you so much for this one - it works great! I've done a little chain and tied it at the top to make the body a little more noticeable but that was the only thing I did different.

I'm not the best at Crochet & usually find patterns difficult to read & understand but when I found your butterfly pattern, I immediately gave it a try with some old wool that I keep to 1 side which I use when I try new projects & I use this old wool to make a practice piece & once I know I can do it, then I move on to betta wool to make them proply & I have already made 1 for my best friend & she absolutely loves it & wants me to make a load more & I have decided that I am going to use these Butterflies to add onto sum of the baby hats & other baby items which I make & then I donate them to my local NEONATAL SPECIAL CARE UNIT at my local hospital, I was in there when I was born very ill & thanks to the hard working, caring staff there who saved my life, I donate baby items as a thank you to them & I am now 31 years old. I really do, truly love these Butterflies, thanks for sharing it with us & sorry for my essay, I sometimes get very carried away, especially when I've got lots to say lol.. Thanks again Hun & keep up the good work. Well, I'm going to make a start on some more baby hats & I will be sure to make some more of these Butterflies to add on to my baby hats & I'm sure everyone at the baby unit will love them x x x x x x x xTerri2eyesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7305089771170290366.post-34525592237525924622014-06-18T07:31:45.307-07:002014-06-18T07:31:45.307-07:00I've made other patterns, and I've tried t...I've made other patterns, and I've tried these....yours are the most 'life-like' butterflies among all those I made...<br />have adopted this pattern for various projects I've made.

I can't believe nobody has asked this yet: can you do a tutorial on the braid?

But they are so cute that I just need to try it. Our first granddaughter is due in 3 weeks....been waiting 27 years for a girl in the family. It's too early to make them for her, but I can see butterflies in her future! I was thinking too about trying to somehow add a crochet chain to the top after folding it and making it into a bookmark...how cute would that be. I did not notice...do you allow people to make these to sell? I understand if you don't, but thought I would ask.
