Have you been wanting to crochet a garment? Or more specifically a dress or tunic?

Well, starting with this one the perfect close fitting crochet dress for any wardrobe!

It’s not that difficult to crochet clothes like a crochet dress. The only thing you have to make sure is to test the gauge & then you’re good to go. 
What’s great about this crochet mini dress is the fact that it’s a top-down raglan style crochet dress, which makes it possible to try it on while you make it. Then you can pick the size that fit’s the best while you crochet it.

How Long Does It Take To Crochet That?


How long it takes to crochet something varies depending on your skill & how fast you crochet. But that isn’t a helpful answer is it?

Well, I’ve developed a yarn calculator to help you get the answer to this question.

It will help you calculate exactly how much time you’ll spend crocheting a project.

All you need to know is how much yarn you will use on the project in either meters, yards or skeins. Then crochet your test square & time it.

Calculate how long it takes to crochet that.

Notes 


  • This crochet pattern is written in US terms.
  • All measurements given are unblocked.
  • Note that measurements are given as exact as possible. But crochet tension & technique might give variations in the result, that changes from person to person.
  • Read pattern instructions carefully before beginning to make sure you understand everything. It might save you hours frogging your work & crocheting it again!
  • Make a swatch that measure at least 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4 inches using the stitch the gauge is given for. If your swatch matches the gauge, you’re good to go. If the gauge is wrong, you might need to change your hook. Go up in crochet hook size if your stitches are smaller & go down in crochet hook size if your stitches are bigger. Learn more about testing gauge.
  • Check yarn info if you want to find an alternative or test your yarn against the gauge. Learn more about substituting yarn.
  • This pattern is written for 9 sizes, where the numbers for the different sizes is given in parenthesis like this: XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL. If just one number is given, it applies to all sizes. I recommend that you highlight or circle the size you’re making before you begin, to make the pattern easier to follow. Size adjustments are added under “Size & Measurements”.
  • At the end of each row, the stitch count is given in parenthesis. It includes starting chains & slip stitch.
  • Placement of double treble crochet stitches (dtr) on yoke: On odd numbers (1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th), dtr stitches are placed after 4 tr from prev row, on even numbers (2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th) dtr stitches are placed before 4 tr from prev row.

Stitches You Will Need 


You will need to use the foundation single crochet stitch, chain, back loop single crochet, treble crochet, double treble crochet.

Foundation Single Crochet (FSC)

Written description:

Step 1: Ch 2 st.

Step 2: Insert hook into 2nd ch from hook, pull up a loop. Yo and pull through first loop (making “chain”). Yo and pull through both loops on hook.

Step 3: Insert hook into prev “chain” you made (It should look like you go through a resemblance of a “normal” st, with 2 strands of yarn), pull up a loop, yo and pull through first loop (making “chain”). Yo and pull through both loops on hook. Repeat step 3 until you’ve made enough stitches.

*2nd ch in step 1 makes 1 st, step 2 makes 1 st & every time step 3 is repeated you make 1 st.

Video tutorial.

DOUBLE TREBLE CROCHET STITCHES PLACEMENT:

When crocheting the DTR stitches in the corners, follow these instructions:

Reach the stitch from the back of the 2 ch on the previous row & skip them.

Techniques You Will Need 


You will need to know how to change colors in crochet with different color on different rows.

CHANGING COLOR WITH DIFFERENT COLOR ON DIFFERENT ROWS:

When working with different colors on different rows, you’ll never finish the last stitch on the last row with one color, with the color you where working with. Do all the steps of the stitch, then leave the last step unworked. Yarn over with the color for the next st & pull yarn through.

Repeat this for every row you change colors to make the color changes look beautiful.
