Rainbows are back! Of all the things you can make with colored stripes, without a doubt rainbows are the most versatile and well-loved. Thus, why not combine this perennial motif with dresses for girls, a match made in cuteness heaven?
A Colorful Crochet Dress for Every Occasion
Here is a great design idea by Emily Keenan for a beautiful crochet rainbow dress any little girl would be proud of! Although the rainbow color bands are all different, they are made with the same simple stitch, which means it will work up quickly and the size is adjustable.
Of course, you can make this dress in other color combinations, but the rainbow pattern is a joyful and cheery design for the summer.
Moreover, this rainbow dress will also function amazingly well as a present for a birthday or any other occasion.
Recommended Yarn and Hook
For the best outcome, use Garnstudio DROPS Paris for this little girl crochet dress pattern. It’s a cotton yarn in aran weight, which is soft and breathable. It’s comfortable, easy to wash, and comes in a wide range of colors to create a beautiful rainbow effect.
A 4.5 mm hook works well for this project, helping you get the right gauge.
How to Adjust the Pattern for Different Sizes
The dress pattern has three size options but can be easily customized for a perfect fit. To make a larger or smaller dress, change the foundation single crochet count at the neckline while keeping the stitch placement for shaping. Adding extra rows to each color section can lengthen the dress, making it fit taller children.
