Introduction

In this video tutorial, you will learn how to create a beautiful baby dress using the Irish lace technique. The focus will be on the front side of the dress, and we will divide our work into different parts to make it easier. We will start by creating a pattern in real size and then move on to working with the Irish lace flowers and cords we have already made. Finally, we will sew everything together and add a dream for the finishing touch.

Materials Needed

Before starting the project, let's gather all the necessary materials. You will need:

• Irish project from two 1249 mad paging on the paper
• Crochet hook
• Pins
• Narrow lace (2 centimeters wide)
• Cotton thread
• Court needle
• Beads

Creating the Pattern

To ensure accuracy, we will begin by creating a pattern for the front and back side of the baby dress. Once the pattern is complete, pin it on a mat for stability. Take the Irish project from tutorial 49 and pin it on the pattern. This project will be located on the upper part of the dress.

Crocheting the Irish Lace Flowers

Next, we will crochet the Irish lace flowers and half of a flower. Refer to Irish lace tutorial 14 for detailed instructions on how to crochet these elements. Once completed, pin the flowers on the pattern according to your desired design.

Sewing the Elements Together

In this step, we will sew the elements together in places of continuity. Start by crocheting the back side of the dress, beginning from the bottom part. Crochet the cord and then pin and sew it together in place. Add beads to the areas where the course didn't connect. Once the flowers are ready, sew them onto the dress as well.

Adding Beads and Embellishments

To enhance the beauty of the dress, we will add beads and other embellishments. This will create a more intricate and decorative look. Take your time to carefully sew on the beads, making sure to follow the design and pattern.

Filling Up with High-tech Mesh

To fill up the spaces between the elements, we will use high-tech mesh. Change the color of the yarn and fill up the entire back side of the dress. This step will give the dress a more solid and complete appearance.

Turning the Back Side to the Front Side

Now, let's learn how to turn the back side of the dress into the front side. This will ensure a neat and professional finish. Make a shoulder join by folding the front side and crocheting it together with the back side. Repeat this process for both shoulder lines.

Making the Shoulder Join

Start by making a slipknot and removing the hook. Insert the hook into the corner chain space and take the working loop through. Make a chain and turn the work inside, hooking into the corner chain space of the front side. Make a single crochet and continue making chains and single crochets to secure the join. Repeat this process on the other shoulder line.

Crocheting the Armholes and Neckline

To create the armholes and neckline, make three single crochet stitches in a row for each. The number of single crochets may vary depending on the chain spaces. Follow the pattern and make sure to maintain the desired size of the dress. Repeat this process for both armholes and neckline.

Finishing Touches and Dream Creation

To complete the dress, add a dream along the shoulder lines and neckline. Use variegated yarn for a colorful and unique look. Follow the pattern and make single crochet stitches, chains, and double crochets to create the dream. Repeat this process for the other shoulder line and neckline.
