When you finish your single crochet, have to crocheting 20 chains in the down side corner of the kite to make the tail of the kite. Continue to crocheting all 20 chains, with single crochet. Now you can cut your yarn and start to decorate your new kite.
I used small buttons for eyes and some pieces of yarn for color. I crocheting a papillion is very easy, you can see here the video,
