This cosy dress will be the perfect complement to your knitted frog’s cool-weather wardrobe. It can be adjusted in lots of different ways, making it an ideal outfit for every occasion!

CONSTRUCTION
There are instructions for both knitting flat and in the round.
For both knitting styles, you will knit the yoke and bodice of the dress first, and separate the body and sleeves. Then you will knit a set of increases to create the skirt.

SKILL LEVEL
This pattern is accessible for beginners. Apart from using the basic knit and purl stitches, you will also use the kfb increase and the M1 increase. Instructions are included in the pattern, along with recommended tutorials.

GAUGE
There is no set gauge. The gauge will depend on the needle size with which you knit your frog.

YARN
You will only need a small amount of yarn for this little dress. 45-85m should be enough.

You can use any 4-ply, fingering weight or sports weight yarn. If you knitted your frog with a heavier yarn weight, instructions for adaptations are included.

I have suggested my go-to yarn above, which is:

Drops Alpaca
Drops Nord
Drops Flora
These are soft woolen yarns. But any yarn in the correct weight will work nicely.

NEEDLES
I recommend using one needle size down from the needles with which you knit your frog.
