On sale for a short time is this little pdf format pattern, 5 pages in 8” x 10” format. Actually the little snail’s name is “Sid the Snail”: I remember drawing stacks and stacks of snails and their butterfly cohorts when I was a kid in the 70’s; this little guy is a nod to those innocent times.

You will need a size 4 steel thread crochet hook, crochet thread or fashion crochet thread, and perhaps some fabric stiffener if you wish.

You’ll need to know chain, slip stitch, single crochet, double crochet, triple crochet ,and double triple crochet. (You can find links to some great video showing these stitches on my website or on youtube).

They work up to approximately 2 1/4” inches long if you use fashion crochet thread, about 2” long for the baby version; the butterflies are tiny little miniatures which turn out about an inch wide when made with crochet thread.

Convo me if you have any questions! There is a key to abbreviations included, several photos, two diagrams, and of course the crochet instructions.I do offer a money-back guarantee of your satisfaction, simply let me know and I will refund your money cheerfully via paypal.
