The little beaded butterfly looks cute and springlike, doesn’t it?
It seems that it is made in the same way than the French beaded flowers which by the way also look springlike.
Eh, do you possibly notice that spring is slowly coming here? ;-))

=> there’s the link to the German instruction

The instruction contains the following abbreviations, I added the translations as given by the DROPS Dictionary (where you can get (not only English) translations of the German crochet terms):

MS = Musterrapport = pattern repeat
Lftm = Luftmasche (Lm) = chain stitch (ch)
Kettm = Kettenmasche (Kettm) = slip stitch (sl st)
fM = feste Masche (fM) = UK: double crochet (dc), US: single crochet (sc)
Stb = Stäbchen (Stb) = UK: treble crochet (tr), US: double crochet (dc)
D-Stb = Doppelstäbchen (D-Stb) = UK: double treble crochet (dtr), US: treble crochet (tr)

Laufen die Zeichen oben zus, werden die M zus abgem, laufen die Zeichen unten zus, werden die M in eine Einstichstelle gearb. = If the symbols are connected at the top they are crocheted together, if the symbols are connected at the bottom, they are crocheted in the same stitch.
