Newest Dolly Dress

Here’s the latest dolly dress – just finished a couple days ago.

I think this one is destined for our school auction.

I changed the pattern on this one a bit from the ones I posted the other day.  The top fits a little better now and is less “stretchy” because I went to all single crochet instead of a mix of single and double.  I also used a lighter weight yarn for the skirt than I had in previous princess versions.  However, altering the top created more stitches in the skirt so overall it took way more yarn… I may have to rethink that in future attempts simply from a cost/practicality standpoint.  Anyway – added some trim/decoration to this one too with the arms, neckline and waistline.  My girls were fans!  And this is absolutely my favorite color blue :).

Do you crochet?  If you crochet I’d love to hear what you think!  Will you like my facebook page or leave me a comment!  Hoping to connect with other crochet peeps!

Very cute. I love the skirt but think the top could use something decorative. II think if I made this I would add a small flower at the waist or even a ribbon at the neck. Otherwise I think it is beautiful and you did a great job. Is there a pattern posted for it? Would like to try it in red or purple for my own granddaughters. Thanks for keeping up the great work.

Lovely. I wonder if I could upsize this for my granddaughter?
