Butterfly Kallima inachus small

Price$7.40

Kallima inachus or the orange oakleaf or the dead leaf is an Asian butterfly found from India to Japan. The bottom side of its wings looks like a dry orange and brown leaf with its veins. So, When Kallima inachus closes its wings it looks like a leaf not a butterfly
This butterfly’s wingspan is 8-11 cm.The wings in this pattern are suitable for brick stitch or peyote stitch.
I wove them using peyote stitch. And the thread way is shown for peyote stitch. 
The body is woven using a sort of tubular RAW.
You’ll need some fishing line with diameter 0,15 mm, a beading needle size 11-15 and 24 colours of seed beads size 11 or size 10.
2 toho beads palettes are offered: for opaque beads and for metal-lined ones.
The pattern includes a photo of the finished butterfly and 4 graphs showing the weaving of the wings, of the body and joining the wings and the body.
This butterfly pattern is a part of the collection "36 butterflies and moths of the world".
