This pattern gives instructions for a cute crochet top in a V-stitch, and also instructions for the making of the tulle skirt. You can choose either lime green top with pink/green tulle, or a fuchsia pink top with pink/green tulle. The choice is yours.

The pattern is written for a 16” chest size, but it is really easy to adjust this size up or down by increasing the number of chains in the foundation chain.

You will need (for the 16” size) approximately 50gr of Pistachio green and a small amount of Fuschia pink for the green top (or 50gr of Fuchsia pink and a small amountof Pistachio green for the pink top) Rico Design Essential 100% DK cotton yarn, and approximately 1.5yds of each color tulle 72” wide (180cm wide), or alternatively you can use the rolls of tulle (one spool of 25yd in each color). I have used two colours in my design, green and pink, You can of course use your imagination and add ribbons, strips of velvet maybe - give your imagination free rein. Three beautiful crocheted roses adorn the front of the bodice, and two flower buttons in pink finish off this very pretty dress.

This is an original design by Loopy Lous.
