Little White Lacy Dress

November 29, 2012 by onewillisfamily

 For the headbands: it is really simple.
First crochet the band:
chain as many as you need to go around the head. turn slip st in each stitch until you reach the end then sl st in first st creating a circle.
For the braid attachment.
Row 1: ch 20. St st in 2nd ch from hook, * sk 2 ch, 5 dc in next ch, sk 2 ch, sl st in next ch. Repeat from* to end. Ch1. Do not turn.
Row 2: Working on opposite side of beg ch, sl st in first ch. *Sk 2 ch, 5 dc in next ch, sk 2 ch, sl st in next ch. Repeat from* to end. Fasten off.

Attach to band. I then tied the ribbon on to the center of each knob.

so it took some time to get this up but i loved how it turned out. 🙂 Here’s the dress pattern again.

Materials:
Approx. 250 yds ww, aran or bulky yarn
Crochet Hook size H or size I if you crochet tightly
Finished Size: NB-Size 3m baby dress or top
Gauge: 5 rounds in pattern stitch are 4”. Crochet loosely. If your dress looks like it will not fit over baby’s head after 2 or 3 rows, try it on for size, if it will not fit you can go up a bigger hook size or add to the beginning chain and follow the same formula. Beginning chain is a multiple of 3 + 2.
Skill Level: Intermediate due to stitches

Special Stitches:
Shell (dc, ch1-3 times, dc) (dc, ch1-5 times, dc) (dc, ch1-6 times, dc)
Cluster: Holding back last loop on each, work 3 dc in same st or sp, yo and pull thru all 4 loops on hook.

Notes:
The number of dc sts per shell change from round to round.
You can make this dress bigger by going up 2 hook sizes or more.
The heart pattern is not included.
Directions:
With MC, ch 62. Join to beginning ch with a slst, being careful not to twist the chain.
