May I introduce to you: Miss Nelly - the newest member of the MyCuties Family. The pattern (22 pages) includes the pretty little dress.

By the way: the dresses of my cuties are mostly one-fits-all, so you can swap here if you like ;-)

Required skills:
magic ring, chains, single crochets, slip stitch, double crochets, crocheting in contiuous rounds as well as in closed or single rounds, increase, decrease, color changing
