Frosted Rose Toddler Dress
The Frosted Rose Toddler Dress is a super fun crochet dress pattern to make for the sweet girl in your life. Yorganza Fashion Scarf Fabric is used in three different colors (blue roses, red roses, and pink roses) and crochet thread is used for the bodice of this crocheted dress. The pastel colored Yorganza kind of resembles cake frosting, so this cute party dress is an ideal crochet pattern to make for a toddler's birthday party. Yorganza is a printed ribbon of organza fabric with pre-drilled holes, making this flouncy fabric super easy and fun to work with. The crochet dress is written to fit toddlers 18-24 months.
