This cute sundress was designed for my niece’s birthday last year. It’s very easy to knit, with a deceptively simple lace hem and a seed stitch bodice, and knits up really quickly. The pattern contains 3 sizes: 6mo, 1yr, and 2yr.

Additional supplies needed for this project:
Two 3/4-inch buttons for the shoulders.

Yarn requirements:
The pattern calls for 3 skeins of Cotton-Ease; I only used a little bit of the 3rd skein when making the 2yr size. So you may get by OK with 2 skeins (some of the test knitters did), especially for small sizes. Use your best judgement, and get 3 skeins if you want to be safe.
