Tips for the Ladybug Detail
Crochet the ladybug as a tiny red dome, then embroider black spots and a center line with floss. Place it on a leaf or petal edge as if it just landed — positioning tells the story. Keep all elements light so the choker drapes comfortably.

Care Instructions
Keep dry and store flat in a soft pouch. Avoid perfume contact. Spot clean gently with a damp cloth and air dry. Check the ladybug's stitches occasionally — tiny details benefit from a quick reinforcing stitch now and then.
