PDF Instant download crochet pattern. Fabulously groovy, swinging sixties summer crochet mini-dress! Simply shaped shift dress, with short sleeves in an openwork pattern. Written instructions only for the crochet - no chart. I've tried out the stitch pattern, which is simple to do.

Vintage 1960s

One size: To fit chest 34-36 inches.

Old UK sizes 6, 7, 8 + 9
Metric 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.5 mm + 5 mm
US sizes E/4, F/5, G/6, H/8

NB: It is essential to make a tension swatch. To obtain the required measurement, work to the tension stated in the pattern.

This is a UK pattern, and a Crochet Hook Conversion Chart and UK-US Crochet Terms are also included.
