a darling idea, but you're working off the camera for part of it, nor do you mention what yarn/thread/hook you're using

[RAE5558]

One of these butterflies will accent the flower appliques, all in Red Heart yarn, for chihuahua sweaters I have been desiging and making for my daughter's little dogs. Thanks ever so much for a deceptively easy pattern but with very dramatic results. I have purched the thin barrel-like washable beads for antennae which will be sewn on/glue-secured before attaching to prevent poking the dog or rusting. Love the design as it is and could see it on a gift I.E.

a sachet or purse sized tissue cover.

These butterflies are very cute. We hope to learn to crochet!

The variegated thread is such a good idea for making the little butterflies colorful! So cute! I wonder how they would look made with regular worsted and a larger hook to embellish the tiebacks on my granddaughters' curtains? Hmmm.. What could I use for antennae, pipe cleaners maybe?

Thank you for sharing your creation!

i can barely see what you are doing? Some of the time you are off the camera and if you could show how you wrap the beginning better I would greatly appreciate it. Can't you try to do it on a larger scale so we can see clearer what you are doing. Thxs.

These are so adorable!!! I love these!!!! I have only crocheted once in my life. lol My mom taught my brother & I how to crochet some ornaments to put on our huge Christmas tree because we didn't have enough ornaments to fill it. lol I will never forget that. I haven't crocheted since then. Not that I didn't want to, but I just never took time to learn. I think I am going to try to do some of these. :) I will let you know when I do them. This is going to be interesting! hehe

TFS tutorial!

@123cardmaker Oh don't stop making videos because of a comment like this. There will always be a grammar-nazi or someone that thinks they need to run out and educate the world. It's not mislabeling, it's just a name you chose for it. Like once I knew this girl named Hunter.. she did not hunt, she was JUST named hunter! I'm just saying, label your creations however you want. =)

[JO138214]

@TezzyDarling Grammar-nazi? I was trying to help. By labeling it that way, she looked really stupid to people who know what micro miniature art is. The video is fine. There's a difference in figurative speech and an actual claim. "Hunter", who isn't a hunter, is speaking figuratively. Micro is an actual claim. IOW's , it's not true, it's false advertising. You might like false advertising, I don't. The label was misleading. My search brought me here because it was mis-labled.

[whitneysolier1]

Sorry I may have missed this information some where in your vid., but what kind of string, yarn, or floss are you using and whar size crochet needle? They are so cute and seem pretty easy to make for those of us who maybe a little crochet challenged.
