Watermelon Dress

I just can't stop making this dress! I love it. This version is a copy of Ellen from wild about color Its made of cotton yarn. I used a larger hook and hopefully it will fit my one year old grandaughter. Again this lovely dress pattern you can find here

I would probably repeat the rows before the edging, to give room through the hip area. I've thought about re-working the pattern to get maybe a size 2t or 3t.; July 20, 2011 at 5:50 AM
Sandy said...: That is gorgeous!! I started that pattern, but I got it all twisted up after doing the first couple of rows. Any suggestions on how to do it so that it doesn't twist up on me??; July 20, 2011 at 6:22 AM
