Princess crochet frock1

 You have seen the development of this frock in my previous posts.lt is a princess crochet frock for 2-3 yr girl

It is crocheted in c2c stitch but not diagonally.

All the three parts ie two front and one back are crocheted separately down to the waist.then they are combined in one and flare is added from there.

For the three parts I have crocheted 11,13 C2C stitches and 17 for back.upto the waist they are crocheted straight and then combined together.

The three parts are joined together at the shoulder according to shoulder width and the remaining is left on which collar will be crocheted.as shown in first figure.

The three parts are then combined together and waist down part is crocheted .flare is added by increasing the stitches.i have increased 6 stitches in one row and there is increase after every six rows till the required lemgth is reached

.

Leaving the arm hole width.remaining part is sewn.and the sleeve is knit onthis in round.

In a different way as this stitch is designed to be knit back and forth.after reaching the starting,the work is turned back and crocheted

For the sleeves ther is 15 C2C stitches.it is also shaped and decreased after some rows to get the shape.
