Lizzie Dress

Introducing the charming **Lizzie Dress**, the perfect knitting project for your winter and spring wardrobe! This delightful dress features a warm, cozy collar, making it an excellent choice for your little ones during the cooler months. Whether you're an experienced knitter or a beginner, you’ll find this pattern easy to follow and enjoyable to create. The **Lizzie Dress** is designed to be worked top down and seamlessly, which means no annoying seams to sew up later! Once you've completed the yoke, the piece is divided into the body and sleeves. The body is worked flat initially, then effortlessly joined in the round for a smooth finish. The sleeves are crafted in the rounds using double-pointed needles for a snug fit. Available in a variety of sizes—0-3 months, 6-9 months, 1-2 years, 3-4 years, 5-6 years, 7-8 years, and 9-10 years—the **Lizzie Dress** accommodates a chest circumference of 48-66 cm. For the perfect fit, length (measured at the back) ranges from approximately 45 to 65 cm, depending on the size chosen. For this pattern, you'll need **Paintbox Yarn Simply DK**, with the number of skeins varying by size: 2 for the smallest sizes, up to 4 for the largest. The total yardage required is between 450 to 950 meters, so be sure to stock up! You'll use circular needles in 40/60 cm lengths, along with double-pointed needles sized 4mm and 4.5mm, and a 3.5mm crochet hook for finishing touches. This pattern also calls for some additional accessories, including 2cm buttons, stitch markers, and stitch holders to keep everything organized while you knit. To achieve the correct gauge, you need to knit 24 stitches x 30 rows, which equals a 10 x 10 cm swatch in stocking stitch on 4mm needles after blocking. Get ready to enjoy your knitting time with the **Lizzie Dress** pattern! Ideal for gifts, family photos, or as a stylish everyday outfit, this dress will keep your little one warm and fashionable.
