These unique doilies features 6 or 8 realistic butterflies surrounding a center full of flowers. These bright, joyful doilies will remind you of a beautiful spring or summer garden! They can be made in a large variety of colors--the possibilities are endless!
> For the "Butterflies and Shadows" Doily, the butterflies are made first, then joined to the flower center on the last round. The spaces between the center flowers look like the “shadows” of the butterflies fluttering above them. Buds are added between each butterfly to join them all together.
> For the "Butterfly Rose Garden" Doily, some parts are crocheted separately, then they are joined and more are added as you go. The 3D roses with realistically arranged petals cover a white background that resembles the white trellises that roses often climb in a garden setting. Delicate green leaf branches are placed throughout the doily, and realistic butterflies frame it all for a lovely finish. The roses have 4 separate layers of petals, meaning they can be made in anywhere from 1 to 4 colors each. This allows for even more variety, as is found in nature.
