Materials Needed:

• Yarn: 100% cotton yarn, preferably Drops Paris yarn. For a medium-sized dress, approximately 800g were used in six different pastel colors.
• Crochet Hook: A 5mm hook.
• Additional Tools: Scissors, stitch markers, and a needle.

Pattern Overview:

• The dress utilizes a simple granny stitch, comprising a two-row repeat pattern (Row 2 and Row 3 repeated throughout).

Foundation Chain:

Start with a slip knot:

• Wrap the yarn around your finger, push the working yarn through the loop, and tighten it.

Chain:

• Yarn over and pull through a loop repeatedly. Your foundation chain should be the length of the dress, in multiples of 4 plus one additional chain for the turning chain. Measure with a tape to ensure accuracy without stretching it too much.

Starting the Dress:

Save

In Row 1:

• Count 3 stitches from the hook and double crochet (DC) into the fourth stitch.
• This turning chain of 3 counts as a DC. Place a stitch marker in the first stitch.
• Perform one DC in the next stitch. This creates your first cluster of three DCs.
• Chain 1. Skip one stitch. Make three DCs (1 in each of the next 3 stitches), chain 1, skip one stitch. Repeat from * to * until the end.

Row 2:

• Chain 5 and turn your work.
• Make three DCs in the chain 1 space, all in the same space.
• Chain 1. Locate the next chain 1 space, and place three DCs.
• Continue until the end, chain 2, then DC in the marked stitch. If changing colors, swap yarn colors at the final pull-through of the last DC.

Row 3:

• Start by chaining three (this counts as the first DC).
• In the chain 2 space, place two more DCs.
• Continue as in Row 2, placing three DCs in each chain 1 space, chaining 1 between each cluster.

Continuing the Dress:

• Repeat Row 2 and Row 3 for the entire dress, changing colors as desired to create stripes or blocks of color.

For the V-Shaped Collar:

Save

Creating the Collar:

• Start with a slip knot then chain 20.
• DC in the fourth chain from the hook and in each of the next two chains.
• Chain 1, skip three stitches, and place three double crochets in the fourth stitch. Repeat until the collar reaches the desired size.

Attaching the Collar:

• Position the chain to match the main body part, ensuring the clusters line up with the chain 1 spaces.
• Connect both pieces, continually checking alignment.

Assembly:

Save

Shoulders and Sides:

• Sew 12 rows for each shoulder, leave room for the head. Sew the sides of the dress.

Sleeves:

Finishing Touches:
