BUTTERFLY, FLOWER & LEAF CROCHET PATTERN

I love making small ornaments for embellishment, and here are the Spring
motif crochet patterns of butterfly flower leaves. Since the butterfly flower
leaf crochet pattern only has 2 rounds of crochet, thus, they are pretty simple

and quick to make. You can use stash yarns or lace threads of various colors
to crochet, the finished size depends on what kind of yarn or lace thread you
used. I used lace thread and DMC Perle cotton #8 which are the stashes
from my previous projects of crochet bead necklaces and lace trim
handkerchiefs. The lighter / thinner the yarn or thread you use, the smaller
the finished piece will be if crocheted with a matching hook size.

A butterfly flower leaf is a popular embellishment. They are great to put onto
many things apart from those I have made here. Just a suggestion, the flower
bouquet shown on the photo frame can be put on bags, notebook covers, etc.
The next thing to do with butterfly flower leaf would be a card for mommies
for the upcoming mother’s day or a greeting card for any occasion. Also,
instead of clothespins & hair clips, what about making them for hair bands,
earrings, necklace pendants, and rings? Not to mention the flower brooch;
there are so many ways to use it… I pinned it on my dolly lampshade.

Hair clips are my daughter’s favorite, so I made a pair of flower + butterfly


for her. I think the next things she would want from my crafty hands are ear-
rings and hairband 🙂

4. Plan your design, colors and quantities to make for crochet butterfly,
flower and leaf ornaments.

5. For Photo Frame:

Cut burlap or hemp cloth and fringe the edges by removing a few
warps’ and wefts’ thread.

Position the flowers and leaves, secure them with a pin.

Sew or glue them with hot glue. I prefer to sew because the burlap
could be too weak to hold the flower in place with glue.

https://www.craftpassion.com/crochet-butterfly-flower-leaf-pattern-tutorial/ 9/26
20/11/2022 16:39 Butterfly Flower Leaf - Crochet Pattern | Craft Passion

6. Tie a ribbon and sew it on the “stems” of the flowers and leaves.

Position & glue the motif on the felt or photo’s plastic cover or on
the frame of your photo frame.

If you want to put the photo in the frame, position the motif away
from the main display area so that it won’t block your beautiful
photo. Glue some butterflies and flowers to decorate.

20/11/2022 16:39 Butterfly Flower Leaf - Crochet Pattern | Craft Passion

7. For Clothes Pin & Hair Clips:

Make a knot on the yarn tails at the back of the crochet flower, trim
away the excess yarn but not too near to the knot. Glue the flower
on the clothespin with hot glue.

Do the same to a hair clip, hair barrette, bobby pin, hair claw, hair
band, bun holder, etc…

20/11/2022 16:39 Butterfly Flower Leaf - Crochet Pattern | Craft Passion

8. For Flower Bouquet Brooch:

Crochet 8 flowers, sew them together from behind and minimize the
appearance of stitches in front. Use similar sewing thread color to
camouflage the stitches within the bouquet just in case they did
show up on the front.

Take 2 yarns from behind to the front and tie a knot to secure the
“stems” in place just like a flower bouquet.

https://www.craftpassion.com/crochet-butterfly-flower-leaf-pattern-tutorial/ 12/26
20/11/2022 16:39 Butterfly Flower Leaf - Crochet Pattern | Craft Passion

9. A brooch pin and a small piece of felt enough to cover the back of
the pin.

https://www.craftpassion.com/crochet-butterfly-flower-leaf-pattern-tutorial/ 13/26
20/11/2022 16:39 Butterfly Flower Leaf - Crochet Pattern | Craft Passion

10. Sew brooch pin to the back of the flower bouquet, again, try not to
show any stitches in front.

11. Cover the back of the brooch pin with a small piece of felt either by
gluing or by sewing along the edges.
