I love how this dress allows even a relative beginner complete a project that shines like an advanced piece.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1815\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ILC_june_small-32.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1815\" class=\"wp-image-1815 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ILC_june_small-32-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Dare to Flair Toddler Dress www.lindadeancrochet.com\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ILC_june_small-32-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ILC_june_small-32.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1815\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dare to Flair Toddler Dress Photo courtesy Prime Pulishing<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The pattern is sized for a 2T through a girl size 8, and can easily be customized. Add length by making the rectangles longer, add width by making rectangles wider. You may need to make some adjustments on the triangles, but this will depend upon where you want the flair to begin, at the waist, at the thigh, maybe at the hip.<\/p>\n<p>I enjoy the versatility that this dress has, and how it really allows variegated yarn to color pool in a way more like knitting. This design would also be fun worked in color blocks, meaning working different panels different colors and joined together.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1814\" style=\"width: 209px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/FB_IMG_1493330982593.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1814\" class=\"wp-image-1814 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/FB_IMG_1493330982593-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"www.lindadeancrochet.com\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/FB_IMG_1493330982593-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.lindadeancrochet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/FB_IMG_1493330982593.jpg 634w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1814\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo courtesy Prime Publishing<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Whenever I design clothes for kids, I always try to make it something that they can be successful getting dressed in themselves.
