I have had this baby dress in my queue for years. I finally found time this last week to crochet it for an upcoming baby shower gift. It’s an easy and quick pattern that is easily customized.
I did not add the longer sleeves and just worked the basic pattern and added picots around the capped sleeves and bottom hem.
My Details:
Using an H (5 mm) hook, I crocheted the dress with a 3 ounce skein of vintage Caron Dazzleaire worsted yarn in colorway banana until round 9. Then I added some white yarn for 2 rows for a stripe.
I crocheted the pattern to round 18 when I ran out of the yellow yarn. So at round 19, I crocheted 2 rounds of white and then added the picot stitching around the bottom edge.
My finished length is 11 inches long from neck center to hem. 9 inches wide from side to side under sleeves.
Overall this is a wonderful pattern and it is free over at Sabra’s crochet blog here.
Enjoy and if you need a quick little baby dress, I would recommend this crochet pattern to all.
