Accessories...

I made 3 accessories...
They are 3 headbands

First, A butterfly made from multicolour 100% cotton yarn, size approximately 2in.
Butterflies are deep and powerful representations of life.
Many cultures associate the butterfly with our souls.
The Christian religion sees the butterfly as a symbol of resurrection.
Around the world, people view the butterfly as representing endurance, change, hope, and life.
In Greek myth, Psyche (which literally translates to mean "soul")
is represented in the form of a butterfly.
 Befittingly, Psyche is forever linked with love as she and Eros
(the Greek god of love, also known in Roman myth as Cupid) shared an endlessly passionate bond together - both hopelessly in love with the other.  
Greece doesn't corner the market on associating the butterfly with the soul.
Christianity considers the butterfly as a symbol for the soul.
 To wit, the butterfly is depicted on ancient Christian tombs,
as Christ has been illustrated holding a butterfly in Christian art.
It's connection with the soul is rather fitting. We are all on a long journey of the soul.
 On this journey we encounter endless turns, shifts, and conditions
that cause us to morph into ever-finer beings.
 At our soul-journey's end we are inevitably changed -
not at all the same as when we started on the path. 
To take this analogy a step further, we can look again to the grace
and eloquence of the butterfly and realize that our journey is our only guarantee.
 Our responsibility to make our way in faith, accept the change that comes,
and emerge from our transitions as brilliantly as the butterfly.

Second, A flower with a small butterfly. The flower made from worsted weight yarn yellow&green, the butterfly 100%cotton orange, white & black. Flower size is approximately 2in, butterfly half in.














Third, A pink flowers made from 100 % cotton yarn. A pattern is the same as the seconf flower.
