Petit fours

Top tip

This pretty cotton yarn is cool to wear, making it ideal for all warm-weather garments

Don’t you think the stripes on this mini frock look a bit like yummy layers of sponge and jam? And those tiny bright buttons have got to be rainbow sprinkles. The tasty treats don’t stop there either – the texture in the main body of the dress is created with pretty popcorn stitches. Crochet designer Lisa Naskrent’s almost good-enough-to-eat dress is sized to fit children from under 12 months up to five years. What a fine confection.
