Buttercup baby dress...


I just finished making this gorgeous Buttercup Baby Dress! I love it and even though I don't have kids (and no I'm not getting clucky!! lol) I really wanted to give one of these cute projects a go! It was super easy, I used this pattern with modificatins by my crochet teacher Jodie from Jellywares! I used some Cascades cotton rich yarn. It comes in some great colours and I thought that this bright buttercup yellow would look good, also I haven't used this colourway before so it's nice to use a different colour.

It was a great project that worked up super quick and used a couple of shell stitches which you can see in the pic above. I'm really pleased with how it turned out. It's a newborn size so now I just have to wait for someone to have a baby so I can give it to them! lol

Next I'm going to try and make another scarf in a gorgeous purple colour, maybe another cowl but this time a chunky one... still undecided.
I'm going to head over to Ravelry to find a new pattern. I've still got a gorgeous ball of Eco-Wool that I've been meaning to make a scarf out of for my sister Jessie. Might get that started too! Ah too many great projects, I wish I could spend all day being creative!!

    1. Hi there, here is a link to the pattern I used: http://www.angelfire.com/va/afghans4angels2/NewbornBurialGownSet.html
      I modified it slightly by not making it as long as the one shown on the pattern website.
      Good luck with it! :) Thanks for stopping by!
