Absolutely beautiful. I know I would love to have any or all of these in my kitchen especially now that the weather is warm and you get the chance to actually see butterflies during this time of the year.

These look like they could just take flight. It is really hard to believe that these are dishcloths. I love this design and I know I will be making these for home association gift baskets. Thanks for sharing the pattern.

1st row (RS). 1 sc in 2nd ch from hook. 1 sc in each of next 6 ch. Ch 10. Sl st in fi rst ch - fi rst loop made. I am confused on the instructions. WHAT IS fi rst ch? Is this supposed to mean first chain? Why are they all wrote that way if so. I have never ran into that abbreviation before?

So cutealmost TOO cute to use! Would make nice decor for my bathroom, as I have a butterfly theme in there, or would go with my sunflower theme in the kitchen!

IF I KNEW I WOULDN'T HAVE ASKED--SORRY ABPOT CAPS
