Notes

Crochet Tips:

1. When making picots, keep them tight and neat for a polished finish. They add a lovely texture to the butterfly's wings.
2. Take care with your tension, especially when transitioning between different stitch heights.
3. After finishing, give your square a gentle stretch in all directions to help it settle into shape.
