For my crochet Butterfly, I’ve used the same pattern as for the Crochet Mini Heart Bow. You just need to make antennae and you will have a Butterfly! This is a very quick and easy project.

If you like Butterflies, make sure to check out my two other butterfly patterns: Heart Butterfly and Butterfly applique.
