Granny squares hook up with color knitting for this girl’s jumper. Crochet the skirt first, joining as you go. Pick up and knit around the skirt top for a seamless, easy-finish dress. Sized for your favorite 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 year-old.

Pattern is 5 pages in length, with schematics, and very specific sizing instructions by gauge with the granny squares.

If you are comfortable with sock knitting, you will probably be comfortable working this pattern.
