First of all, I’m glad that you can support a Brazilian maker and transform
the handmade business even more sustainable. I’m pretty sure you will
love to make this dress as much as I had fun doing it.
For a handmade life,

About the yarn:
For this project I choose Amigurumi Soft yarn (50% acrylic,

45% cotton) produced by Círculo Yarns, a brazilian company.
Amigurumi Soft is a TEX 434, DK - Light Yarn. The amount
of yarn for sample size S (loose fit, oversized) is 11 balls of
65g/2.3oz (150m/164yds each). Size S sample weight:
560g/19.75oz. In case you choose to make this dress in one
color only, knowing the sample weight will help you to figure
out how many yarn you will need.
Always consider that you will need more yarn for larger sizes.
Your crochet stitch tension also will influence the amount of
yarn you will need. I always recommend buying a little extra
yarn, so you don’t miss your actual project and can use the
leftovers in other projects. For sizes M and L, you can buy 4
extra balls of yarn than recommended for size S.
In case you wish to replace Amigurumi Soft for other yarn, follow
suggestions below: - Balloon yarn (Pingouin/Brazil)
- Amigurumi (Kartopu/Turkish)
Yarn with similar thickness (weight) but different compositions:
- Amigurumi (Círculo/Brazil) - 100% cotton
- Alabama (Katia Yarns /Spain) - 50% acrylic, 50% cotton
- Tricot Estrela yarn (Croche Estrela/Portugal) - 100% cotton
- Duna (Círculo/Brazil) - 100% cotton
- Barroco 4 (Círculo/Brazil) - 100% cotton
- Charme (Círculo/Brazil) - 100% cotton → using this yarn you may
have to adapt the pattern or use double thread to achieve the same
result.
About crochet hook:
For this project it is important that your crochet stitch tension don’t be
too tight. This dress has a fluid shape, not so structured, so make a
tension gauge before starting this project because you may have to use
a thicker crochet hook.
Stitches required for this pattern:
- Chain
- Slip stitch
- Single crochet
- Double crochet
- Treble crochet
- Puff Stitch (4 loops puff stitch)
Finished dress measurements for size S:
Length: 75cm
Total Skirt Width (wider part): 114cm
Armhole circumference: 59cm
Total Chest Width (right after armholes division): 114cm
Foundation row instructions per size:
- For all sizes (S/M/L): chain until you reach 80cm (approx. 92
chains)
I strongly recommend that all adult sizes start with the same number
of chains, once this measure (80cm) was defined to fit all different
head sizes. We’re going to start the dress for the neckline, so keep in
mind that the instructions for increasing different sizes will be along
the written pattern, not in crochet chart. In order to make child sizes
or custom-made, adjust the neckline to the person’s body
measurements. That can change a little bit the math of the dress, but
always think to compensate each step of the project in a proportional
way (32% of foundation chains to front/back, 18% of foundation
chains to each sleeve).

Crochet chart 2 - Armholes division
Note: If you want to make a few more rows and shape the armholes
later, no problem! Remember that the more rows you make in this
early part of the dress, the larger will be the armholes and body part.
So it's time to try on your body and make necessary adjustments to fit
you perfectly! With the number of stitches I used to divide armholes
and body in this project the size S dress will be oversized fitting,
standard fit for size M and tight to size L. It is important that the
armhole is adjusted in a way that you feel comfortable wearing it, so
you must try on in your own body to choose where to shape them!
In order to make a division between armholes and body, I used the
corners. For that, fold the work in half and shape two holes (armholes)
in the edges. Place the hook in the first stitch from the armhole with
the Greenery color yarn and chain 7 (or 8). Join to the “back” part of
the armhole with a slip stitch and finish. Do the same thing in the
other armhole. Reserve the yarn.
Hint: If you want to make more chains, the body part will get wider
too.
Crochet chart 3 - Body
Using Greenery color yarn from Crochet Chart 2, let's work front and
back at the same time in rounds all over the dress.
1st row: Chain 3, 1 double crochet for every chain, skip puff stitches.
Join the round with a slip stitch.
2nd row: Chain 3, 1 double crochet in the back loop only for each
stitch from previous row. Join the round with a slip stitch and finish.
3rd to 7th row: Join Pitaya color yarn, repeat 2nd row. Finish.
8th to 11th row: Join Solar color yarn, repeat 2nd row. Finish.
12th row: Join Piscina color yarn, yarn over widely to start making
the puff stitch; * 1 Puff stitch, chain 3, 1 puff stitch worked in the
same stitch; chain 1, skip 3 stitches; * repeat from * to * until the end
of the row. Join the round with a slip stitch and finish.
From 13th to the 32nd row repeat the 12th row following the color
sequence below:
13th row: Terra color yarn.
14th row: Greenery color yarn.
15th and 16th row: Alfazema color yarn.

sleeve stitches to crochet the finishing. Use the front loop only when
crocheting along the 3rd row from Crochet Chart 3 (body).
