Autumn Celebration Dress

Its starting to feel like Autumn! Summer is coming to a close, school is starting, the leaves are beginning to change. Autumn is my favorite season of the year, and I felt it deserved a celebration, so I made the Autumn Celebration dress! This is a great pattern that I like to use as a base for lots of differnt kinds of dresses (see the August Bliss dress) so feel free to use it for whatever you like, whatever the season!

  4. What type of yarn did you use?

  5. The yarn I used was Bernat Chunky Yarn. I think the color was "Summerset" or "Fiesta" or something of that nature. Its one of my favorite yarns. ;-)

  6. I haven't crocheted in a long time and have only made afghans. BUT I just got my niece an AG Doll and am going to try to make this or the Lacy Shell Doll Dress. Wish me luck cause I don't know what I am doing but I want to make it for Christmas.

  8. I see that you used a G needle & Bernat Yard but I was wondering what weight yarn that is? and also how much of the yard is needed?

    Thanks a lot...

  11. Hi Linda, I don't know what to tell you about the sleeves because I don't know what pattern you are using. In this dress, the pattern develops the sleeves gradually. If I had an idea of what your pattern was like, however, I may be able to help. If you'd like to email me, my email is tennyemaye@gmail.com.
    Hope this helps!

  12. I'm lost at row 8. do i turn or not? what opposite side? or is that making sleeve?

  13. At row 8, you don't turn. You are joining it to the other side to make the skirt part of the dress. From here on out you will be going in circles. ;-)
