This is a very simple little dress & cardi shrug pattern that can be manipulated in so many ways!
If you use fingering weight yarn & a 3mm hook, you will gain a preemie size, sport wt & a 4mm hook will give you a newborn size, sport wt & a 5mm hook will get you 0-3 months size, & worsted weight & a 6mm hook will give you 3-6 months size.
This dress will look best with the skirt made in a solid color, as this will let the beautiful stitch pattern really shine through.
