A beautifully shaped A-line dress for small girls, with a deep gathered inset pocket in contrasting fabric. This is a wonderful soft dress, perfect for cool autumn days, fresh spring mornings, and winter dreaming. It is perfect for twirling around in, and perfect for hiding treasures deep inside the pocket. And absolutely perfect for cuddling up with on the couch with your favourite doll.

The pattern includes: Full line by line instructions for the knitted component, paper sewing pattern pieces for the fabric inset, and a schematic. Please note the document is 18 pages long.

I'm not really sure if I like the idea or the photography better! It looks so warm and cozy, and the girl is adorable.

I am a textiles student in the UK, and stumbled upon your blog. I actually print and can barely knit... but this has inspired me to pick up the needles. The dress is truly wonderful!
Your blog has been such a lovely way to lose myself for an hour!
