Lulu's funky knitted dress



I wanted to knit a funky little dress for my 3 year old.  This is what I came up with. As I couldn't find a pattern I gave it a go myself.  I figured I'd knitted enough hats, jerseys and cardigans to work out a basic pattern.  And I'm pretty chuffed with the end result.

I hemmed the dress by knitting a row of garter so the hem would fold over neatly. And because I couldn't work out how to finish off the the neck and armholes neatly I crocheted the edges so they looked tidy without loosing the funky knitted dress vibe.
