All 4 wing sections needed to be snipped carefully away….
and then stitched again
I decided to spool knit cords to make it really pop …. so,
I spool knitted a […]
In my previous posting, I got started with reclaiming a woven scrap to embellish a Tshirt.
I drew a butterfly, then layered the drawing on top of the scrap of reclaimed weaving….
Next, I cut the excess weaving away, and pinned the drawing and weaving to the WRONG side of the Tshirt front.
Then, started stitching. I didn’t […]

I’ll never have time to do it, but I love it that now I COULD!
Here’s the pattern URL: Crocheted Mathematics of Chaos Butterfly Model by Hinka […]
