Wavy Edged Pinafore Dress (no 136)
Knit Our Adorable Pinafore Dress – A Charming Knit Pattern for Babies and Toddlers Aged 6 Months to 3 Years!
Design Features: This delightful Pinafore Dress showcases a unique wavy pattern hemline complemented by double-moss stitch edgings, adding a touch of elegance to your little one's wardrobe. The front and back of the dress are knitted separately, making it easy to customize and sew together at the sides for a perfect fit. Finishing details include the addition of two buttons stitched onto the front straps, enhancing both functionality and style.
Available Sizes: This versatile knitting pattern includes a range of five sizes to accommodate children from 6 months to 3 years, specifically: 6m, 12m, 18m, 2 years, and 3 years old. Now you can create the perfect handmade gift for any baby shower or birthday celebration!
Recommended Yarn: For this adorable Pinafore Dress, we recommend using 4 ply wool. For our international knitters, an alternative yarn option would be the USA Sport weight or the Australian 5 ply yarn. The sample photo depicts the dress knitted in size 18m, using Sirdar Snuggly 4 Ply in the lovely shade of Lilac (0219), perfect for any little girl.
Tension Guidelines: Achieve the best results by ensuring your tension matches our specifications: 28 stitches and 36 rows to 4 inches/10 cm in stocking stitch when using 3.25 mm needles (or the equivalent size to obtain the stated tension). Proper tension is essential for a beautifully finished garment that fits just right!
Essential Knitting Tools: To complete this project, you will need 2 sizes of straight needles: 2.75 mm and 3.25 mm (equivalent to USA sizes 2 and 3) to create the charming texture. Don’t forget to have 2 buttons on hand for the final touches!
Please Note: This knitting pattern is meticulously crafted in English using traditional British terminology, making it user-friendly for knitters in the UK and beyond. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting your crafting journey, this Pinafore Dress pattern is a delightful way to add some handmade charm to your child's wardrobe.
