Child sizes are available when set is purchased only! Set sizing & shaping is done slightly differently than for Baby version of dress due to the differences in yarn.

As girly as it gets, this sweet and springy dress was inspired by the Flapper Era. It features three layers of ruffles on each hemline and a medallion at the empire waistband. It’s knit in the round from the bottom up with set-in sleeves, the only sewing required. Don’t forget to knit the matching hat!
