Crochet dress with monkey applique



Curious George is my daughter latest favorite animal at the moment, she loves Monkey. 
So i got the idea making dress for her. 

This is an easy dress with simple stitches and working in continuous round.





















This dress fits toddler 1-3 years old and measures 16" long.

Materials I used:

4 seasons stallion 8 ply yarn, love this yarn it's  soft.
With two colours light and dark brown.
5mm hook
Scissor
A fluffy yarn for edging
colour pink.
White for shell decoration.

To start with :

With dark brown
Row 1 :      Chain 79, slip stitch to form a ring, be careful not to twist it.

Row 2 :      Ch1, sc in each st. Around, don't  slip stitch continuous in round.

Row 3- 23 :  Repeat row 2.
                     You have a total of 25 rows for the body.
                     Slip stitch.Fasten off.

Row 26 :       Insert light brown colour yarn, ch2, dc same st.,
