Every year since my brother died I look forward to seeing dragonflies. I don’t know what happens after we’re gone but I like the idea of our loved ones coming back to visit as dragonflies. Isn’t that why we get so excited to see them, as if they hold something special?

I have provided two charts with different main and contrast colours for you to choose from.
There are some long floats, which will require catching. I catch every 3 to 4 stitches making sure to not catch on the same stitch the next round.
I like to use a variegated colour for my dragonflies because I like that depth in colour but they look just as pretty in solids.
