Ellen's baptism dress It works from top to bottom. The fit is first made in rows on a circular knitting needle, so that a small slot is created in the neck. Afterwards, the remaining pass is made in rounds. The skirt is also worked in rounds on a circular knitting needle and a delicate dandelion pattern with increases takes place, so that the skirt gets its width. The distances between the dandelion pattern are getting bigger and bigger downwards – like breeze flowers dancing in the wind. The sleeves are knitted on a set of double-pointed needles or with the Magic Loop method. Along the neckline and at the slit in the neck, an I-Cord closure is made. The length of the baptizing dress can be adjusted according to your own wishes.
