Butterfly top

Butterfly top is a very fun crochet project that is pretty quick to make. You can choose between the brallette version of the version that has more coverage in the front. It is perfect for festivals and different events as well as fun pop on your everyday wear on top of shirt and blouses. The wings may be stiffened with fabric stiffener (some type of starch), which will make them more sturdy and visible. Pattern includes written pattern, charts and pictures which makes it much easier to follow. It is written in standard US terms. It is written for sizes XS-XXL, but there is a lot of made-to-measure steps so different sizes may be made as well. Size Yarn Hook Gauge (size of the bigger wing panel) How much yarn to use?
