Summer skirt for a girl
I had decided to do properly - to crochet on a pattern. But I did wrong something and the result is not alike to that one in the pattern. I think it's even better. I haven't ever tried to work on patterns after that, I have only made my owns.
Yellow bricks pullover
I wanted rhombs with light middle and dark edges. I don't know weather it is a classic patchwork. Pattern is here.
Dress for a little girl
The first dress for my daughter. The idea was to combine light green with dark blue. The result was great, but it became too small quickly.

Top part.
1st row (right side): c2f, p3
2nd row (wrong side): p2, k3
3rd row: c2b, p3
4th row: p2, k3.
Begin with the both front parts (cast on 63 stiches for each), decrease both ( approx. every 3rd row) to form the shape (see schema). Notice that decrease is on the side (at the sleeve cut) not the front. When the shoulder points (5, 6) are reached increase 5 stiches in 5 rows at first. Then just cast on the remaining 12 stiches to form the neckline. Connect this all togethet in one piece – left front part, just casted stiches, right front part. Then knit the back side to form the shape.
When finished, connect top part to the bottom part (see the schema which points must be placed together).
Sleeve
Technical pattern the same as for the top part.
Start with one piece, when underarm is reached split it in 2 parts. Decrease each part to form the shape of the sleeve – decrease 10 stiches in one row at first, then decrease 1 stich each row.
Finishing
Sew up the garnment.
Chose some crochet pattern for borders – notice that it has to have holes in it. Take a different colour (gray in my case). Form the edges (marked in red – see schema). For sleeves – when you crochet the last row connect it with the crocheted line on the other side – to make the sleeve together.
Make (knit or crochet) a tight tie. Draw it through the holes and tie up in the bottom.
It’s ready!
