Materials:
- 400g of DK weight yarn in your chosen color
- 4.0mm crochet hook
- Stitch markers (optional)
- Tapestry needle
- Buttons (optional)
Gauge:
- 20 stitches x 10 rows in double crochet = 4″ x 4″
Pattern:
Yoke:
- Chain 80.
- Double crochet in the third chain from the hook and in each chain across.
- Chain 2, turn.
- Double crochet in each stitch across.
- Repeat rows 3-4 until the yoke measures 6 inches from the starting chain.
Body:
- Divide the stitches into 3 equal sections (approximately 26 stitches each). Place stitch markers at the beginning and end of each section.
- Continue working in double crochet, but work the middle section in reverse double crochet (reverse dc). This will create a cute V-neckline.
- Work even in double crochet until the body measures 8 inches from the start of the yoke.
Skirt:
- Increase round: Chain 2, double crochet in the next stitch, chain 1, double crochet in the next stitch. Repeat from * to * around, ending with a double crochet in the last stitch.
- Work even in double crochet for 1 round.
- Repeat row 1 and 2 until the skirt reaches the desired length.
Finishing:
- Slip stitch in the next stitch, chain 1, and turn.
- Work single crochet around the neckline and armholes.
- Sew on buttons (optional) for the shoulder closures.
- Weave in all ends.
Tips:
- You can adjust the length of the yoke, body, and skirt to fit your baby.
- You can use different stitch patterns for the body and skirt to create a more unique look.
- You can add embellishments such as ribbons, flowers, or buttons.
