Butterfly (MK#22)

This colourful butterly is based on Mary Konior's pattern on page 64 of her 'Tatting Patterns' book . There should be 4 gradating picots on the top but I miscounted and ended with three. My gradating picots are a little exagerated but I think it works here. Thread used is Anchor Pearl Cotton 8 in Col. 1375.
