Butterflies are amazing little miracles- one of my absolute favorites. Every spring I look forward to their fluttering wings. Now you can have them around all year long! Make a bunch in your favorite colors-

This sweet butterfly lovey is made from soft acrylic yarn and is perfect for playtime and nap time. It’s machine washable, according to label directions and measures about 11 inches when finished. If you don’t have any plastic eyes you can always use yarn and make your own or leave without. That way this toy can be given to any child under 3 or baby. Makes a wonderful shower or birthday gift! Use as a large applique for a baby blanket to match nursery colors.

Supplies you will need:
Red Heart Super Saver /Acrylic worsted weight, #4 yarn in: spring green, black, shocking / hot pink, turquoise blue, pumpkin OR your favorite colors
Crochet hook H
12mm black plastic safety eyes (optional)for children over 3 years old
Blunt-end yarn needle
Stitch marker or piece of yarn to mark your place
