Materials Needed:
- Yarn (in the color of your choice)
- 10mm crochet hook
- 6mm crochet hook for weaving
- Stitch markers (can use bobby pins)
- Tape measure
- Scissors
Starting the Dress:
- Crochet half of the length of your bust measurement, then crochet another two chains.
- Start the first row by crocheting in the third stitch from the chain, putting a double crochet, then chain one. Continue this pattern down the chain.
- At the end of the row, chain two and turn your work.
Continuing the Pattern:
- Place a double crochet chain one in every stitch and every space, repeating this pattern along the row.
- Continue the pattern of placing a double crochet chain one until reaching a desired length (typically around 25 to 25 ½ inches).
Managing Width:
- Adjust the width by occasionally skipping a stitch on either side to keep the project straight and rectangular.
- If the project starts getting too wide or too small, increase or decrease stitches as necessary.
Creating the Second Panel:
- After reaching the desired length for the first panel, chain two, then crochet into the first two spaces of the garment.
- Chain 20 in between these two ends, then single crochet into the marked stitch.
- Continue the pattern of double crochet chain one into every stitch, chaining two at the end of the row and turning your work, until reaching the desired length for the second panel.
Arm Holes:
- Measure out about 5 and ½ inches from the top of the garment to mark the armhole on each side.
- Using a 6mm hook, slip stitch up the side of the garment until reaching the marked measurement.
- Crochet double crochet chain one into every space around the armhole and repeat this pattern until it's long enough.
Adding Ruffles:
- With the 10mm hook, insert it into the side of the garment, chain two, and place another double crochet in the same space.
- Continue placing two double crochets in each space all the way around for three rows.
