Lacy Baby Dress
Finally finished the baby dress I had been working on. I decided not to block it.
The yarn I used is Super Fine #1 and the color is Denim Blue. I used a 3.5mm or E hook. Size 18 months.
Light Green ribbon.

Oh after posting the picture I noticed that the sleeves were smashed up they are puff sleeves.Last edited by spoula; 02-28-2018 at 01:43 PM. Reason: added comment

At long last! Just beautiful. Hope to see a photo of the child wearing it.
PS. I had meant to add that I love the colour. It is not often we see babies' dresses in anything other than Fisher-Pricey eyesore shades. Or pastel shades, which are okay in my books.Last edited by MeToo!; 03-01-2018 at 07:48 AM.

Thanks MeToo, I purchased this yarn to knit a sweater but couldn't keep the thin yarn on the needles and every knit pattern I tried it didn't look good to me so I ended up with a crochet dress. I started out to make a top to wear with blue jeans. The baby has some of those skinning jeans and I thought a cute top with that color would look good. Then I changed it to a dress. That is the beauty of crochet you can make up what you want. I can't do that in knitting.
Thanks for you replies you know how much I enjoy your sense of humor.

Thank you Jean Marie, This one took me some time to do as I wanted to move on to other things. I stopped on this dress to do the cross stitch of my little grandson. Once I finished the cross stitch I knew I had to finish the dress. I wish I had made the puff sleeves less puffy.
P.S. On your blanket you finished I asked if it the squares were puffy because I saw a blanket on the Internet that was made with little round balls and stitched together like you did yours. You said they were not puffy. That was a lot of work.

At first I thought you meant you were making a top for yourself (to wear with blue jeans).

Dear Spoula,
I haven't been on much lately, but this time I just now saw your cute little dress. It is beautiful. Great job. I always enjoy seeing the things posted. I haven't done too much lately either. I've been kinda sick and not in the making mood I guess. But I did finish a sweater for a belated Christmas present. I will try to post it. God bless all who are so caring and encouraging on this site.

I guess it won't let me put up a picture this time. I will try otherwise.

Hello Heidi89, Thank you. I hope you get to post your sweater. I think if you create a new thread or go to pictures to post your sweater it will work. When you reply to another persons post there are only icons for a link or to insert a video or image. I have not seen an icon for attachments.
