In the chat, I brought up a concept I'm currently digesting for a sweater using silk blend yarns and butterfly colors, and I was asked to post it in here. Here it is!
I want to make the background earth tones, like this shawl I just nearly finished (ran out of yarn):
I would get more of the same silk blend yarn as the blue, and put a giant birdwing butterfly on the back, maybe a golden BW on on the front, and the leaf pattern from a Rajah Brookes BW down the sleeves. I'm actually a little undecided what I want on the back. If I'm feeling particularly masochistic when I start charting it, I'll pick the Cairns. Lovely little flutterbug.
Here's a REALLY cheesy concept drawing:

One of these for the back, I think:
Golden BW (my second favorite)
I'm not sure, maybe a Goliath
Cairns (my favorite)
For the front, either an across-the-chest deal or a pocket ornament size:
Cairns top
Rajah Brooks, for the leafy pattern down the sleeves:
