Designer’s description: The Moon Glade Dress is a pretty lightweight dress for ages 6 months up to 10 years. The dress is raglan shaped and has lace detail over the sleeves and bottom of the skirt. A button section sits just slightly right of the spine so babies and littler girls can lay down without buttons poking them in the back. When I first saw this design in my head I pictured a little girl dancing barefoot in the grass with the moonlight shining down on her. The image stayed with me for 3 years, until I could finally bring it to life. Links to video instructions are provided throughout the pattern for the trickier aspects. I would recommend this pattern for intermediate to advanced knitters.
