Crocheted Baby Frock

I finished the Crochet Today Baby Frock. I wish I had a better photo to show you, but its raining outside, so I had to take indoor photos. You can click on the photos to see the pattern better. It turned out really cute, but I don't like the yarn I used. Its a fuzzy acrylic and I think it makes the dress look messy. Since this is the first garment I've crocheted I used an inexpensive yarn just in case I totally messed it up. I'll definitely make this again, but next time I'll use a cotton yarn, like Cotton Ease by Lion Brand.

This pattern was really easy. I made the 6-12 month width since my girls are lean, but I lengthened the straps so the dress wouldn't be tight around the armpits. The seaming is really easy, too.
