Miss Dotty

Introducing the Miss Dotty Baby Dress Knitting Pattern, a charming design featuring a delicate lace yoke and a full ball gown princess skirt. This versatile piece is perfect for new parents, as it adapts beautifully with your baby's growth—transforming from an adorable dress to a stylish tunic with a generous head opening at the neck. This top-down design showcases an intricate lace pattern on both the yoke and the skirt, making it an enjoyable project for knitters of all skill levels. The lace motifs are provided in both charted and written formats for your convenience.

For this delightful creation, we recommend using Dream in Color Jilly, a luxurious fingering or sock yarn that adds an exquisite touch to your knitted piece. To ensure the best fit and finish, use a size 4 US (3.50 mm) needle or adjust as necessary to achieve the required gauge of 24 stitches and 28 rows per 4 inches.

This pattern is available in multiple sizes—0-3 months, 6-12 months, 18-24 months, and 2-3 years—to accommodate your little one as they grow. You'll need the following yardage for each size: 350(400,500,600 - 800) yards of yarn. The chest measurements for each size are as follows: 14 inches (19 inches, 21 inches, 23 inches). To complete the look, be sure to have two ½-inch buttons on hand for fastening.

Whether you're knitting a special outfit for your own baby or creating a heartfelt gift for a loved one, the Miss Dotty Baby Dress is a delightful choice that combines both beauty and functionality. Start your knitting adventure today, and bring this enchanting design to life!
