PATTERN NOTES
The Playtime Dess is an adorable, vibrantly colored addition to the wardrobe of any little on in your life. Worked up in extremely elastic Bamboo Pop Sock, this is a garment that allows your little one to grow comfortably – meaning they can wear it longer. Allow the self-shading yarn to shine so you can simply focus on the stitchwork.

The skirt of this dress is worked in the round from the bottom up to the underarms. Then, the upper body is worked flat. A cute, buttoned tab on the shoulder ensures this piece is easy to put on. You may wish to place stitch markers between each repeat during the Skirt section to help you stay on track.
