This is a light (bamboo/cotton blend) and colorful summer dress for girls 4-6 years old.
It is opened in the back, very breezy at the skirt part, because of the horse shoe lace pattern.
The dress also has a mosaic element, which brings an additional color (and fun during the knitting) into this experiment.
The dress is knitted in the round and flat as well.

Two gauges are provided for the St st part and the lace part.

I recommend using yarn marker, and stitch markers as well.

For I cord, 2 dpns will be needed.

3 skeins of dark color,1 skein of lighter color is all you need.

The dress looks sophisticated, but honestly is very easy to knit, and it knits up fast.
