Pattern Description
The Rainbow Dress is truly a beginner friendly pattern. If you know how to half double crochet and chain, you can make this dress!!! First the bodice of the dress is stitched. Next you make a ruffle row by working into the front and back loops of each half double crochet, the pattern includes a handy video tutorial. Then it’s time to make the skirt which takes some time to make but will be worth it in the end. When your skirt is complete, the inside edging is worked up both sides of the dress. The last step is to make 2 straps and sew them onto the bodice of the dress. So easy! The colour combinations are endless and your little one will look so cute in her beautiful Rainbow Dress! The best part is you can wear this dress with the buttons in the front or the back!
Fit
This dress is meant to fit with a negative ease of 0-2.5cm/0-1in. I made the dress hit above the knee of my daughter but you can easily make it longer if you prefer. Make sure you measure the length of the dress from neckline to hem. Please make the size that is closest to your child’s chest measurement because you can always expect a bit of stretching. I made the size 3-4 size for my 6 year old as her chest is 23 inches. You can adjust the length of the dress to measurements listed for their age.
Materials:
*4.00mm (U.S. G/6) crochet hook or size needed to obtain gauge

See chart in the listing photos for approximately how much yarn you will need.
