This adorable dress is crocheted from the top down. There are no seams to sew! The dress has a beautiful crocheted texture, and is tied at the waistband. It has a back button closure for easy dressing. This pattern includes written instructions with step by step pictures. The first 5 rows of the dress can be a little bit tricky, so there is a crochet chart included for those 5 rows as well.

The Selena Dress will make a great addition to your dolls wardrobe!
