Sometimes ideas bounce around in my head for quite a while making a racket before I finally get around to giving them a try and writing out a pattern. This lil idea has been in there for a solid year. Its not a hard dress at all. The materials are easy to find and easy to work with. It doesnt take a lot of time……. I have zero idea what in the world took me so long to make it. I LOVE THIS DRESS!!!!!! There I said it. I love it. Something just makes me grin from ear to er when I see it. The colors, the style, the textures….. simply a fun piece to make. I hope you will give it a try too.

MATERIALS:
Worsted weight yarn in Black, Pink, Green and White (I used I Love This Yarn!)
Scissors
Large eye needle for weaving in ends
H hook for the bodice
J hook for the skirt
*some chocolate never hurts either
THIS DRESS IS A 3-6 MONTH SIZE but by adding length to the skirt would still fit a larger child …. the chest as is measures 18 inches (its stretchy so give or take) and honestly it could go all the way up to a 21 or 22 ……

ReplyDeleteThank you for such a great post you wrote here and I'm very obliged to write an article here on the benefit of herbal herbs.I am 29 years old and have been diagnosed with breast cancer, ease of treatment and a similar story, except for my first acceptance as a rejection of herbal medicine. I was not part of the Perseid movement and did not really build relationships with any of them, I just believed in their operation. I say this because it was during the use of Dr. Itua herbal medicine that I now attest that herbal medicine is real, the phytotherapy Dr. Itua heals my breast cancer which I suffered for 2 years. Dr. Itua herbal medicine is made of natural herbs, with no side effects, and easy to drink. If you have the same breast cancer or any type of human illness, including HIV / AIDS, herpes cancer, bladder cancer, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, kidney cancer, lung cancer, skin cancer, skin cancer and skin cancer. , LEUKEMIA, VIRUSES, HEPATITIS, INFERTILITY WOMEN / MAN, LOT OF LOVE, LOTTERY.
