I was so excited when Yarnspirations showed me a sneak peak of their 2015 Baby Lookbook: Country Mouse & City Mouse and asked if I would review one of the patterns! This FREE book is full of cute and fun baby patterns for crocheters and knitters and all 14 of the patterns are available as a downloadable PDF.
I was immediately drawn to the Garden Lattice Jumper (page 16) and knew I had to make one for my daughter! I decided to use different colors (than what was featured) from the Patons Classic Wool DK Superwash line of yarn. I chose magenta and aran for the skirt of the dress and pink, magenta, gold, and a bit of black for the bodice. I also saw an opportunity to choose a different design for the cross stitch embellishment. An adorable little owl was the perfect finishing touch! I am sharing my cross stitch graph design below. I made the 18 month size which is modeled by my 21 month old daughter but it’s available in sizes 6 months – 4T. The pattern was easy to follow and the repetition of the stitches made it quicker to work up than I expected! Graphs and detailed pictures were provided along with the written pattern which were a huge help (even for an experienced crocheter). I know many of you will enjoy this pattern and many of the others featured in this Lookbook!
The good people at Yarnspirations have offered to host a GIVEAWAY right here on my blog and will be giving one lucky winner the yarn to make my version of the dress (as pictured!). Enter using the Rafflecopter widget at the bottom of the post.
