Notes

This is not a difficult pattern, and the dress is so cute!

6/8 Almost finished. Just have to do the sleeves, and find someone to help me with the crochet trim.

6/9 Made the sleeves. I hate pick up and knit, but really, this was the only pain-in-the-neck part of this whole pattern, so I shouldn’t complain.

I had a friend help me with the crochet around the neck, but I bound off too tightly, so I ended up frogging all the crochet, going back and knitting one or two additional rows and binding off (loosely this time!)

6/13 Gave the dress as a shower gift today - it was a big hit!

As help for anyone who, like me, had some trouble locating the yarn/pattern:
