Description
Create a treasured keepsake with this vintage crochet pattern for a Christening robe or short dress. Perfect for honoring a special day of faith, this timeless design lets you craft a beautiful, personalized garment that becomes a cherished family heirloom. Created using Mary Maxim Twinkle, a #2 light sport-weight yarn that provided 175 yds per 1 oz skein. We still offer this fan-favorite, although yardage has changed, offering 230 yds/1.75 oz. You'll need 6 oz for the short dress, and 9 oz for the long, and a crochet hook size U.S. E/4 (3.50 mm). Fits infants sizes 3 mo, 6 mo, and 1 yr—Intermediate crochet.
Stitch Requirements: Chain, single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, treble crochet, decrease, increase, repeat, slip stitch, through the back loop.
The pattern is available as a digital download and requires Adobe Reader—or any similar PDF viewer—to open. Once your purchase is complete, you can access the file directly from your account. If you have any questions along the way, please feel free to contact us.

wish it was 100 gr
I love this tote bag so much. It’s elegant and the right size. I am happy with my purchase
It has a good weight and knits up fast.
This is my absolute favourite year to work with! So soft yet durable for all my plushy’s!
Great store, great variety of yarns , great staff, great on line service, great staff, unique items to purchase.
I just love Red Heart Yarns, they knit up nicely, they last forever and soften over time too. They unravel easily too if you make mistakes like I do and hold up well. I love the color selection and have knitted and crocheted many afghans with this amazing yarn! But it's not just for throws and afghans, this yarn is great for anything you want to make. :)
The sales associate helped me find the right yarn for the project I wanted to create. She was great!
Love going to this store. Lots of different and neat items to purchase.
I purchased this for a class that I am doing with Carol and I love the yarn. Not done the blanket yet but working on it.
Excellent
Fast shipping
Always plush and so soft
Great pattern so far almost done
Very fine to knit with
This is my favourite store! If you have questions about a pattern they are always friendly and willing to help . My last visit I had some questions about a yarn choice. I was met with friendly smiles and explanations that helped a lot. I even got the stand up scarecrow this time pretty excited to make him!!
