    About

    Emily has a winter dress I made, passed down from Amanda. Caroline wanted one and loved the yarn I used for Shannen's blanket. The yarn was purchased in 2009. I'm pretty sure they yarn is a discontinued Baby Boucle. The stripes were left over yarns I had around in colors that matched the main color & in a pattern as she requested. In a strong way she designed the striped look as you see it.

    Yarns

    Needles & Hooks

    • Circular 4.00mm (US 6) 80cm

    Accessories

    • Tapestry Needle
    Other : Needle to weave loose ends in.

    Measurements

    Notes: Because my girl is tiny I started at one size & decreased the size until it would stay on her shoulders. I still had to cast on to the neck line & decrease the size some. She wanted a dress for our cold Connecticut winters, this was achieved my adding length...
