Pattern Description
The Lacey Dress is so fun and easy to make. The bodice is a flat rectangle, and is stitched first. Next, there is a lace edging added to the top of the dress by stitching into the 3rd loop only of the last working row. After this, we will break the yarn and re-attach to the bottom of the body panel to start on the skirt. Two rows of lace detailing are worked and then the skirt is made with hdc stitches, and completed with another few rows of lace. The straps are worked separately and then sewn onto the dress. Super easy and absolutely adorable!

Fit
This dress is meant to fit with a negative ease of 0-2.5cm/0-1in. I made my dress hit above the knee of my daughter but you can easily make it longer if you prefer. Make sure you measure the length of the dress from neckline to hem. Please make the size that is closest to your child’s chest measurement because you can always expect a bit of stretching. I made the size 3-4 size for my 5 year old as her chest is 23 inches. You can adjust the length of the dress to measurements listed for their age.
