I've been out for a bit. I'm wondering about this butterfly. The pattern is different on both sides. Is it supposed to be that way? I'm so used to patterns looking like a mirror image from one side to the next.
Why do you think it looks different? I just checked the graphic diagram, and the numbers are symetrical. Maybe the yellow one looks a bit stranger.... that was mine, and was made for the counting check. I did one side first, and attached the thread new to tat on the way back on top.
The violett one is made in one pass, and Muskaan did a nicer job, but should also be the same counting on both sides. Please let us know what you exactly mean, we are still working on it.
Thanks in advance
@bjulia_lacer, if you're looking at the first photo at the top of this thread, then yes, that one is not symmetrical. That is the photo of the one that needed to be redone. But all subsequent photos and the diagrams are all symmetrical. The first one is missing one large ring. Please check the diagrams, and you'll see what that the missing ring has been supplied.
in reply to swissgirl's post:
Please let me know when to finalize the pattern pdf with any changes or additions, suggestions, etc. ....
After taking more time I realized that the others were different than the first one. I must have been in a hurry that night or something that I didn't check the other ones. Thanks for the explanation though. Greatly appreciated!
I haven't tried again yet, but here is my project anyway: http://www.craftree.com/projects/3234
Looks good to me..! When I make a pattern for the firsts time...it usually, but not always looks better the second time I make it.
Thanks, @bjulia_lacer!
