Description
This dress is not only cute, it’s also very practical and versatile. Make a woolly version for colder months to keep your kids cozy without getting in the way when playing and climbing. For warmer seasons, a linen or cotton version is a perfect layering piece when it’s a bit chilly or just not warm enough for just a T-shirt, but too warm for a cardigan.
This pattern provides instructions for a dress (choose between a mini skirt or a flattery wide skirt) and for a tunic version.
