About the Knitting Pattern
These easy to knit children’s dresses feature a beautifully textured diamond moss stitch pattern that adds gentle depth to the skirt. Designed to fit from newborn to 7 years old, the pattern includes both short sleeved and sleeveless options, making it perfect for layering through the seasons. A button opening at the back ensures easy dressing for little ones. The pattern is written in English and supplied as a digital download PDF.
