After my obsession with this pattern passed, I set my sights on a another "go to" knit dress for my girls. When Kathy suggested I make a dress with long sleeves, I knew she was right. So, without further ado, I present, the Go To Dress.
The perfect dress for cool evenings and long winters. With long sleeves, a shoulder ruffle and an empire waist, how could you go wrong? What little girl wouldn't like a closet full of these? Comfortable and cute!
The possibilities are endless.
Pair with some cute leggings or tights if you want, or not.
Or just use what you have lying around. Mix up the fabrics with polka dots and stripes, add an applique or fun pockets, use an old t-shirt or sweater. Be creative.
Mostly just have fun with this Go To Dress! Whip up a few for all the little girls in your life.
This pattern comes in sizes 12 months - 5. Please note that I have only tested sizes 18 mo, 4 and 5. After you make a Go To Dress, please post it in the flickr group so we can all see!
