Barbie Dress




Barbie Dress 

Hello crochers, welcome to my blog.

Today I am sharing a pattern for a crochet baby dress. This is very easy crochet pattern, it works really fast ,you can make it in 1-2 days depending on your speed.

 I have chosen bright colours,(bright pinks, parrot green and yellow). You can make it in the colours of your choice, it can be made in solid colour as well.

I have use double crochet for the yolk and  v stitch for the body of the dress. I have used a v stitch variation in the last row for the edging of the dress.

This is a beginner friendly crochet pattern.it will fit to a 3 year old but you can make it smaller or bigger by decreasing and increasing few rows in the yolk.

Along with written pattern video Tutorial is available for better understanding.
