Awareness Butterflies


Hello........... A few weeks ago now some friends and I were offered a tree to decorate at the Woollen Woods.   We all have various Chronic Health conditions so decided we would decorate our tree with flowers and insects in awareness colours representing our various health conditions.


I decided to make some butterflies as they represent transformation and hopefully one day things will improve for the better for all of us.  I used Bella Coco's butterfly tutorial and soon they were flying off my hook.


They are really quick and easy to make and would make lovely little brooches.


Ta-dah

It amazed me how they all turned out so different depending on the yarn, represented here we have ME Lyme disease, Thyroid disease, diabetes, autoimmune disease.

Now I think my little butterflies all flew away when I put them in the post as they took over a month to arrive in Scotland and completely missed there chance to hang out in the woods.

Lets hope all these Chronic Illness will also get lost one day soon, so I can fly again.

Happy Crafting

  1. I wish all chronic illness, cancer, heart disease and everything else would be cured. I hope someday there is something else to help Little Buddy with his cerebral palsy. My wish for everyone is health and peace. Love the butterflies Claire.
