This one will be a beautiful row of butterflies...
I used Maries pattern, as it was simple and the perfect size.
So far I have done the crochet body, which is a flower shape, with 8 petals.
This will then get folded in half, to achieve the butterfly shape.
I'm thinking to do a black edging, to give it more of an 'Admiral' butterfly look?

Hachi
This heartwarming true story is an American adaptation of a Japanese tale about
a loyal dog named Hachiko. This very special friend would accompany his master to the train
station every day and return each afternoon to greet him after work. Sadly his
master departs one day, passes away and never returns to the station. Hachiko
faithfully returns to the same spot at the station the very next day, and every
day for the next nine years to wait for his beloved master. During his daily
visits, Hachiko touches the lives of many who work near and commute through the
town square . He
teaches the local people love, compassion and above all unyielding loyalty.
Today, a bronze statue of Hachiko sits in his waiting spot outside the Shibuya

I would never have thought of this for a crochet butterfly but it looks so effective. Thank you so much for sharing this as an idea! x
ReplyDeleteI had a real Oh I see moment reading this. I was thinking that maybe the butterflies were going to be added to the flowers later....brilliant idea though. very bright and cheerful. x
ReplyDeleteOooh those flowers are really pretty! I love the idea of the butterfly. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is really a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteBoth the daisies and the butterflys will be beautiful bunting. I do like the idea of a black edging.
ReplyDeleteI love the combination of colours on the butterflies, I also thought at first they were flowers for the butterflies to sit on - but I can't wait to see a picture of the finished butterflies.
ReplyDeleteOh wow these are really pretty, they can be done in so many colour combinations.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! (sorry Picto - great minds think alike, lol!)what a fantastic way of making a butterfly. I may just have to pop over and have a look at Marie's pattern :) These will look beautiful as bunting.
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love the butterflies! That's so clever!! - looking forward to seeing the bunting :-) Simmi x
