Chloe Dress Crochet Pattern
This listing is for a digital crochet pattern to make The Chloe Dress, a sweet and romantic crochet dress with a textured hdc v-stitch bodice, full skirt, delicate Peter Pan collar, bow detail, lace edging, and button fastening at the back.
The Chloe Dress has a beautifully nostalgic feel, inspired by wildflower gardens, homemade lemonade, lace parasols, and childhood days spent twirling in the sunshine. With its soft textured fabric, full skirt, delicate collar, and little bow at the neckline, it feels special without being overly fussy.
When I first started dreaming up The Chloe Dress, all I knew was that it had to include a bow. From there, the design slowly began to take shape. I wanted it to feel timeless and a little old-fashioned, while still being comfortable enough for little ones to wear, play, and move in.
Whether worn for family photos, birthdays, garden parties, special occasions, or simply for dressing up at home, The Chloe Dress adds a beautiful handmade touch to childhood memories.

The dress is designed to fit with approximately 0-5 cm (0-2 in) of positive ease.
For the best fit, choose the size closest to the child’s chest measurement rather than relying on age alone.
CONSTRUCTION
The Chloe Dress is worked from the top down.
The yoke is crocheted flat using a textured hdc v-stitch pattern with raglan shaping. Once the yoke is complete, the sleeves are separated and the body continues before increasing into the full skirt.
The skirt is worked in a simple repeating stitch pattern and finished with a delicate contrasting lace edging.
The Peter Pan collar is worked separately in two sections, leaving a small space at the front for the bow. The back opening is finished with small buttons for a classic vintage-inspired look.
Once the stitch pattern is established, the construction becomes beautifully repetitive, making this an enjoyable project for confident beginners and experienced crocheters alike.
