FO: Crumpets toddler dress

Whew, I finally finished this one. It turned out so well--worth the long stretch of stockinette stitch. My tension is pretty uneven on the skirt portion--I'm hoping a wash will alleviate this somewhat. I should have gone down a needle size, but instead tried to knit tightly. Now I know better, though .

On my little one
Note the fussybutt wool bloomers peeking out--perfect!

Thanks for looking!

I meant to add the yarn and pattern

It's just plain ol' cotton-ease by lion brand, that's the yarn the pattern called for. I like it, but I think it would be more special in a wool/cotton blend.

Also, I eliminated the ribbon at the waist--it was a little too over the top for me. Plus, my 18 month old would definitely untie it or fiddle with it!
