These three delightful butterfly designs use Kreinik’s Tapestry (#12) Braid™ in iridescent colors. This braid is a perfect size for crocheted accents and contemporary jewelry. Here it creates lighter-than-air butterflies that can be worn as pins or sewed onto a denim jacket, crocheted purse, summer hat, or anywhere that you can accessorize to match today’s garden-friendly trends in fashion.
