As pretty as a summer rose, the Aelwen Baby Dress will make your little girl look cute as a button. The dress features a patterned hem and a softly flowing skirt gathered into a beautiful lace yoke. Buttons at the back ensure that it will be easy to put on and off.
It is worked in a soft, draping cotton mix yarn which feels cool and fresh so it can be worn right next to the skin or over a light-weight summer top.
The pattern includes five different sizes from 3 months to 2 years. Make several in different colours and prepare for your little one to be coo'ed over!
