I love to use crochet cute little things as accessories. These Cute Butterflies are so incredibly easy to crochet, so I’d like to share this pattern with you today. And moreover - small projects like these are great for using up scrap yarn!

For this pattern you will need 2.00 or 3.0 mm crochet hooks. Or another comfortable sized hook

Tapestry needle

Scissors
Small amounts of any worsted weight yarn.

For a bigger butterfly I would recommend you to used up Spagoyarn Cottonel or YarnArt Jeans, 55 % Cotton 45% Acrylic, 50 gr. / 160 m, 1.76 Oz. / 174 yds

Picot stitch directions: Create three chain stitches from the point in your row where you want to add the picot stitch. Insert your hook in the third chain from the hook. Yarn over and pull the yarn through the stitch and through the loop on the hook. This is one completed picot stitch.

TREBLE CROCHET (TR)
A treble crochet (sometimes called triple crochet) is taller than a double crochet and is made by working two yarn overs at the start of the stitch, instead of one yarn over as for double crochet. It is abbreviated tr.

STEP 2: * Yarn over and draw yarn through, pulling up a loop.

STEP 3: Yarn over again and pull yarn through the first two loops only on the hook.

STEP 4: Yarn over again and pull yarn through the next two loops only on the hook.

STEP 5: Yarn over again and pull yarn through the last two loops on the hook.

STEP 6: One treble made. Yarn over twice, insert hook into next stitch; repeat from * in step 2.

DOUBLE TREBLE CROCHET (DTR)
A double treble crochet (sometimes called double triple crochet) is taller than a double and treble crochet and is made by working three yarn overs at the start of the stitch, instead of one yarn over as for double crochet. It is abbreviated dtr.

STEP 1: Yarn over three times, insert the hook into the work (sixth chain from hook on the starting chain).

STEP 2: * Yarn over and draw yarn through, pulling up a loop.
