~~ bloom ~~

I am pleased to announce that I am licensed to knit tiKKi’s new pattern called bloom.

Bloom is designed to bloom, or grow with your little girl. From birth it looks particularly cute as a beautiful dress. In white or cream it makes the perfect christening or naming dress. As the little girl in your life grows the ribbing in the bodice and shaping of the cap shoulders allows the dress to bloom into a cute little peasant style top. On the bigger girl the front increasing become more of a focus. I love how it looks totally different on different age groups, a cute little baby dress for the wee ones, but not babyish at all for the bigger girl.  - tiKKi

It is wonderfully economical item that grows with your child from a dress to a cute top.

Bloom is best in a plain one colour due to the lace work in the skirt part of the dress.

Here is a photo of a bloom I made for my youngest daughter wearing a medium sized bloom (8ply). It is a great length on her as a dress. It can be worn by itself or pop a top on underneath for extra warmth. I popped it on with the ribbon tie at the back as M likes to undo it!

Bloom - a dress on my youngest and a top on my eldest.

The same bloom on my eldest daughter (4 years old) as a cute dress top. Here the ribbon tie is at the front.
