Last night I cast on for a cute little girl dress for my older niece Charly. Since Maddie's sweater was a bust I am trying to be optimistic.
The pattern is in this month's Knit Simple, it is shown in a cute turquoise color, but that color was unavailable online, so I went with a shocking shade of pink any 6 year old girl would love:
It is even (unbelievably) brighter in person, but Charly loves pink!
The pattern is interesting, you create the waistband in this cool and complicated cable pattern and seam it together. Then you pick up stitches for the smock and the skirt and knit in the round.
The yarn is 93% cotton and 7 % elastic so it has a cool feel to it and makes a nice fabric when knit. Keep an eye out for updates on this fun new project!
