Finally I have gotten around to writing this up in some smaller sizes. Some of the figuring comes compliments of the knitting brain of Katherine from StitchyMama Handknits who sells dresses knit from this pattern if you're looking for one to buy. Check out her store, she makes some absolutely beautiful stuff! Sue and Nat of Woolly Butts also sell from this pattern, and run another woolly store that is chock a block full of drool worthy woolliness!
You may wish to refer to the full pattern for better instructions; these instructions may not be as detailed as the original due to trying to squeeze so many sizes in here.
PLEASE NOTE: the sizings here are based on the calculations of a 27 week pregnant woman wielding a calculator and some brain straining maths skills. They have been test knitted but inevitably, I still expect some errors, so any feedback would be most welcome :D
Oh look, different pics of Lily in her rainbow dress LOL
PLEASE NOTE: the rainbow dress pattern is no available as a free pattern, please visit either Ravelry, my ozebaby store or click on the side bar to purchase a copy of the updated and muchly improved rainbow dress complete with a whole plethora of options for you to choose!!!
woo hoo! I'm going to do the 6 month sizing Tikki :) Will try to get started on it soon!
ReplyDeleteYay! I was going to knit the size 2, knowing it would be too big for my little one, but I think I will try the 12 mo. size. Thanks for posting smaller sizes to this gorgeous dress!
