If you have enough yarn left, a matching hat would be super cute!knitalattehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294064694631022635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276266847729349745.post-92089692180451032652013-04-04T19:38:28.790+01:002013-04-04T19:38:28.790+01:00There is a proper circular version of this pattern...There is a proper circular version of this pattern but I read that people have problems with it. I simply adapted the straight needles version, which also has some errors but I already knew what they were! I used a circular needle until I changed to straight needles on row 1 of the bodice. I then knitted the back and front bodices separately. The errors are in the front bodice instructions. After row 3 you should have 27 stitches. Row 4 should read K1P1 on every row. Neck row should read "moss 7, cast off 13, moss 7". I hope that helps. Let me know if you are still having problems.Unahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398380737025120541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276266847729349745.post-26045910321295281622013-04-04T16:53:05.874+01:002013-04-04T16:53:05.874+01:00I've used this kind of wool in the past to kni...I've used this kind of wool in the past to knit my puppets. I always noticed that the bobbles end up at the back when working in stocking st. I must say I don't really like working with these bobbly yarns much. They don't make for an even knit as the bobbles catch against the adjoining yarn and it doesn't 'flow' nicely. You little dress will look cute, though, and I think a little shrug or cardigan would work well. Or a teddy. Or a puppet!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276266847729349745.post-52823500451813652832013-04-04T16:17:57.946+01:002013-04-04T16:17:57.946+01:00I have been (unsuccessuflly) trying to make this d...I have been (unsuccessuflly) trying to make this dress for my 1 yr old granddaughter. I started on circular needles but couldn't figure out the directions and forgot armholes :-) So now back to the original pattern of two pieces. If you are successful on circular needles and wouldn't mind sharing your pattern, I'd be delighted!Cache-Mirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16372111386401886195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276266847729349745.post-6219080532520575542013-04-04T14:27:01.715+01:002013-04-04T14:27:01.715+01:00That's such a sweet color!That's such a sweet color!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276266847729349745.post-66908253385984984342013-04-04T12:29:17.258+01:002013-04-04T12:29:17.258+01:00Such a sweet project.

Or perhaps a little shrug or vest.Ana Figueirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03450234882899244493noreply@blogger.com
