Description
This damson purple crochet dress joins a textured crochet top to a full, layered tulle skirt, and it is made for twirling. The bodice is worked in a close crochet stitch with an open, lacy edge along the neckline and up the shoulder straps, finished at the waist with a neat scalloped trim. From the waist, layer upon layer of sheer tulle falls in soft, uneven points, so the skirt floats and swishes with every spin. The colour is a deep, dusky purple, the shade of ripe damsons, and it runs through both the yarn and the tulle. We sell it in two sizes, 3-4 years and 5-6 years, so you can pick the one that fits best.
It belongs in the dressing-up box, ready for fairy tales, ballet games and long afternoons of make-believe in the playroom or the living room. The sleeveless cut and slim shoulder straps leave arms free for dancing, and on cooler days it layers happily over a long-sleeved top and leggings or tights. It suits a child who loves to dress up and spin, and it makes a thoughtful present for anyone with a dressing-up box to fill.
The top is worked in 100% acrylic yarn and the skirt is 100% polyester tulle. Both sizes are light to wear: the 3-4 years dress weighs 104g and the 5-6 years dress 125g, so it never feels heavy during a dance. To keep it at its best, hand wash it only and lay it flat to air-dry; do not iron it and do not bleach it. For gifting, fold the skirt loosely around the top and wrap it in tissue paper, ready to be pulled on and spun round the room.
