Carousel Pinafore Dress Easy to Follow Knitting Pattern, Cute Fairground Dress with Horse motif PDF for download - Ages 3 months - 3 years

Easy to follow knitting pattern for a baby and toddler Carousel Pinafore Dress knitting pattern. The fairground or Merry Go Round as we call it here in the UK, has beautiful galloping horses running around the bottom edge of the dress. 

“This is a great dress for a confident beginner, with a very small amount of stranded colourwork, this is a perfect first stranded knitting project”.

The garment is worked from the bottom up, with the skirt worked in the round with a stranded colourwork border after the garter stitch edging. At the waist, the stitches are divided for front and back bodice and worked back and forth in rows using garter stitch. Super simple, highly effective and knits up quickly if you are looking for that perfect gift.
