Fiber Arts Archway

In 2026 we will be continuing our collaborative fiber arts archway. This time we are filling it with butterflies!

​​​

One of our volunteers created the crochet pattern below to make a sweet little butterfly that works up fast and uses practically a scrap of yarn.   

​

If you can't attend the festival but are local, you can drop a butterfly off at the local shop to the festival: 

The Knitting Otter

​

If you would like to mail a butterfly because you cannot attend, you can send it to our main office. Please make sure that you ship with appropriate postage so that it is not returned to you:

Hoosier Fiber Arts Association

114 Holden Dr.

Brookston, IN 47923

​​

We've also included some links to other patterns, both crochet and knit.  But you can also use your own pattern, or any that you find, and we're even open to butterflies made out of things that are not fiber arts!  Get creative and join in the fun!

​

If you'd like to make a peony to add to our Peony Archway, you can find info here: https://www.hoosierhillsfiberfestival.com/peony-archway
