You missed one dc stitch here, again!
This is no good!
Wasabi always checks my crochet works. Thanks Wasabi!
I had a comment and emails from this blog readers about 3D butterfly.
The patterns were not developed by me; however, I made a lot of butterflies from the different patterns and I have revised pattern several times to make my version of 3D butterfly pattern. I am glad to share my 3D butterfly pattern.

3. Place the antennae piece around the center of the butterfly and pull knot through the loop.
