Free pattern: Little girls Lacey-Love batwing sweater or dress

Wen from What’s Mummy Up To? shares a free pattern for her Lacey-Love batwing sweater/dress for little girls. In its shorter version, it’s a simple pullover sweater. But made longer, it’s a cute dress. It’s a super easy pattern to sew up, using just two pattern pieces. Make it from a fleece or sweatshirt material for winter wear, or a jersey knit for lightweight top. Her free pattern comes in two little girls sizes – 3 and 7. If you need another size, it should be easy enough to adjust one of the two patterns to fit. For the pattern and tutorial, click the link below:
