Buttercup

I’ve been working on another doll’s dress using this pattern by Hazel Spencer
Pattern Modifications:
I worked an eyelet pattern instead of the drop stitch pattern on the skirt and sleeves. And I used the picot bind off for the bottom of the skirt using
this tutorial from knitty.com.


The button band has a row of single crochet and then some loops for the buttons instead of the usual buttonholes. The teeny buttons are just the normal plasticy kind I got at a notions shop called Al Washia.







I'm suspecting that these buttons are too fiddly for tiny baby fingers but I love how the dress turned out and the doll seems happy too! Here's Dolly K sporting her new "Buttercup"!
