Beberapa tahun yang lalu, sekitar tahun 2010, ketika saya sedang di dalam gelombang “gila mengait”, setiap hari, setiap waktu saya akan meng”google” pelbagai pattern baju baby yang comel sehinggalah saya terjumpa satu pattern yang sangat comel. Namanya Clara. Tapi sayang, saya tidak dapat membeli pattern ini kerana pattern ini hanya dijual di dalam bentuk “Kit” sahaja pada masa itu.
Few years ago, within the year of 2010, I was in the “crictical state” of having “knitting addiction”, whereby, almost everyday I’ll be -googling- patterns for babies like crazy :O. In search for the cutest pattern meanwhile, I found Clara Dress. Oh yes, it is the ultimate cutest dress i have ever seen. But well, unfortunately, I was not able to purchase this pattern as the dress pattern is sold only as a Kit. Though I was feeling disappointed, I just let it go.
Beberapa minggu, atau mungkin beberapa bulan yang lalu, saya terlihat salah seorang kenalan FB mengait saya membuat pattern ini berdasarkan gambar sahaja. Kagum saya melihat hasilnya. Hampir 99% sama dan seiras. Saya menjadi bersemangat untuk mencuba pattern ini tetapi alangkah saya ini bukanlah jenis yang suka mengait projek “bermula dari bawah”.Β Maka beberapa hari yang lalu, saya kuatkan semangat untuk mencuba versi TOP DOWN pula. Bermula dari leher dan terus ke bawah (seamless). Tapi seperti yang sudah saya jangkakan, projek saya pasti akan menjadi lain rupanya dari yang asal. Makanya, terus timbul idea “gatal” saya untuk mengubah pattern ini sedikit dan akhirnya, terjadilah rupa yang anda lihat pada gambar di atas. Comel kan? π (heheh)
Few weeks, or perhaps, months ago, I saw one of my FB acquaintance was doing the same pattern only by looking at the photo, she made her own version which to me, it looks 99% similar to the original dress. I am amazed :). She even wrote down her own note in a diagram form. However, I am not a person who do things from “Bottom up”. Thus, after thinking about this for a while, I decided to do a TOP DOWN version few days ago, by trial and error. But yet, whenever I start to knit something, my mind as well, started to imagine different kind of pattern to adapt in this dress, again and again. Oh, I really can’t help it and I just can’t stop myself “ruining” the dress. Well, as the pattern was at first, inspired by the Clara Dress, I finally made this dress as how you see in the photo above. What do you think about it? π Perhaps it looks “common” and “typical” but I still find it cute! *wink wink*
Alhamdulillah, saya berkesempatan untuk menulis pattern ini dan berharap anda akan mencuba dan “enjoy” mengaitnya. Dress yang comel ini sesuai untuk dijadi sebagai hadiah ataupun dikait untuk anak anda yang comel. Saiznya juga boleh diubah suai mengikut jenis benang kait dan jarum yang digunakan. Jom!
Alhamdulillah, I have the opportunity to write down this pattern for free tonight. So, I hope you will enjoy knitting one. This cute dress can be a gift to your beloved friends who just got her baby or even you can knit one for your own lovely daughter. The size is adjustable according to yarns types and the needles used. Let’s knit!

1. Different weight of yarns will produce different size. My pattern using the recommended yarn will produce 6 months to 18 months old size. i notice that, if you continue to increase at least 2 more times before decrease (leaf), you can get 2 years old size. However, for the ARROWHEAD LACE Pattern, you have to recalculate that to match with the number of stitches.
