Butterfly Dance

The butterfly has become a metaphor for transformation and hope. Butterflies represent positive changes and are seen as a sign of brave forces watching over you, ensuring graceful transitions. These magnificent creatures are regarded as messengers of God or angels that have come to earth to help humans with their spiritual journey. The pattern BUTTERFLY DANCE is worked in rounds from center out. You can use it to create blankets, bags, pillow covers, garments and much more. You can either use the complete design or part of it for smaller size (21 rounds) squares without the butterflies to create a project with a totally different look.
