If you like a cornucopia of colors and patterns, look no further than butterflies.
From the common fritillary, to monarchs and gossamer-winged blues, butterflies are some of the most colorful animals on the planet. In fact, they are rivalled in this only by some birds and fish. Therefore, it’s no wonder that there are so many amazing butterfly-themed crochet patterns. However, the acme of these is the standalone crochet butterfly that will grace any item you put it on. Moreover, if you make any of these projects in a large number, you can have your own butterfly swarm to brighten up your home as we head into the fall.
