Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Make two upper wings.

Sew the wings to the back of the body, first the lower wings between rounds 25 and 30, pointing slightly downwards, and then the upper wings between rounds 20 and 24, pointing slightly upwards. Make sure that the upper and lower wings overlap, and that they’re directly opposite to the face.

Ava the Crochet Butterfly is a beautiful craft project made through crochet. Its design is detailed but also welcoming, with bright colors making it come to life. It has pretty wings with lively colors and a body made carefully, showing the love of the person who made it. Placing Ava on a shelf or desk can make any room brighter and bring a bit of outdoor beauty inside. She is a lovely project for anyone who enjoys crafting, whether they are new to it or have lots of experience. Making Ava is a fun crochet project that ends with a cute, brave butterfly, perfect to give as a gift or keep for yourself.
