One for the girls

The sweetest little sweater dress.  I loved making this, as soon as one of my friends saw it she asked me to make her one to give as a gift as she liked it so much.




I'm loving the baby stash, baby clothes are a joy to make.


I used Dk wool with a 4.5 mm hook 
It took 96 grms wool

You can find this and many more fantastic free patterns on this blog  here   

Stash-buster project 2 

total yarn used so far.....193grms

  3. Oh Linda, that is the cutest little dress - and those three flowers make it perfect. That looks like a handy pattern - you could take the bodice portion and customise it in a lot of fun ways - pullover sweater, cardi, different skirt and sleeve length....
