If you’ve been a bit reluctant to try crocheting a garment because it seems a little too advanced for your skill level, fear not! This pattern is super easy and doesn’t require any complicated shaping. It’s made up of two squares, so if you can crochet a blanket, you’ll do great with this crochet pattern.

The top is made up of 2 equally sized squares/rectangles which make up the front and back. The squares are then joined and a decorative crochet edge can be added if desired.

Make a sample swatch at least 10cm/4″ square (bigger is better), to determine your gauge, this will help you determine how many stitches you will need to chain on.

You will need:

5 balls Lily Sugar’n Cream – Ombre Calico (for girl’s size 8-10)
5mm Crochet hook
Finishing needle
Scissors
Measuring tape
