Honey Bliss Baby Sundress Free Crochet Pattern

Honey Bliss Baby Sundress Pattern by Crochet For You

This cute little outfit perfect for spring and summer. It’s easy to wear with the adjustable shoulder straps and waist belt. This crochet baby sundress will fit 18 to 24 months old little girls.

More about the pattern

I used one skein of Caron Simply Light – Honey as the main color. I love its softness and lightweight. This crochet baby sundress would look adorable with other Caron Simply Soft Light yarns. To make a larger size of this pattern, I recommend you to work with Caron Simply Soft yarn worsted weight.
