🍬🌈 Rainbow Candy Dress Progress Update 🌈🍬

 

The Rainbow Candy Dress is officially coming to life and I’m so excited to share another progress update with all of you! ✨

Since my last sneak peek, I’ve been refining the top portion of the dress and shaping the fit more carefully. Seeing it on the dress form really made the vision click for me the colors, texture, and overall vibe are turning out even prettier than I imagined 💕

This yarn continues to surprise me with every row. The soft rainbow speckles mixed with the white base give the entire piece such a dreamy “cotton candy meets carnival lights” feeling 🍭✨ Every section works up differently, which makes this project feel so unique and full of personality.

Right now I’m focusing on:

• Finalizing the top shaping

• Cleaning up the strap details

• Planning the skirt design

• Deciding how flowy and dramatic I want the finished dress to be

I want this dress to feel playful, colorful, and magical while still being wearable and flattering. So far, I’m absolutely loving how the stitch texture is highlighting all the rainbow color changes 🌈

I’ll continue sharing behind-the-scenes progress, pattern updates, and sneak peeks here on Patreon as I work through the next stages of the dress. Thank you all for following along and supporting my crochet journey your excitement always motivates me to keep creating 💖

 

🍬🌈 Rainbow Candy Dress🌈🍬

 

I’m so excited to finally share the beginning of my newest crochet project with you all.

This is just the top portion of the dress so far, but I’m already completely obsessed with how the colors are working together. The yarn reminds me of colorful candy swirls, summer sunsets, and carnival treats all mixed into one dreamy design. 🍭💖

For this top, I wanted a shape that felt both playful and flattering, with a soft textured stitch pattern that lets all the rainbow colors shine. Every stitch feels different because of the color changes, which makes this project so fun to work on!

I’m still planning out the bottom portion, and I have so many ideas for how magical I want the finished dress to feel. I’m thinking flowy, vibrant, and full of movement 🌈✨

I can’t wait to continue bringing the Rainbow Candy Dress to life with all of you following along on the journey. Thank you for always supporting my crochet creations and getting excited with me over every new project 💕

Foundation Single Crochet

Step 1: Chain 2

Step 2: Insert hook into 2nd chain from hook and draw up a loop.

Step 3: Chain 1 (not too tightly!) Place a stitch marker here.

Step 4: Now complete your single crochet as normal by doing a yarn over and drawing through the 2 loops on the hook.

Step 5: Insert your hook in the base chain of the previous stitch (aka where we put our stitch marker) and pull up a loop. Remove stitch marker if using.

Repeat Steps 3-5 for as many foundation single crochets as your pattern calls for. You will end on step 4.

Purse

Make a sc foundation ch as long as you want your purse to be.

Ch 1, turn, 1 hdc in each st to end, repeat this until you have the width of your purse.

Once you have the width of your purse you will sc all around putting 2 sc, ch2, 2 sc in each corner ending with a slip st.

This is where you will add your fabric to your purse.

Now fold your purse in half and sew up the sides.

 

Now add your D rings to the side of the purse by sewing them on.

 

Zipper

1 sc in each hole of zipper, once at end of zipper ch 3 and continue to sc on other side ch 3 end with a sl st.

Now add the zipper to the purse by sewing the zipper on, then enjoy your purse.

 

Birthday Dress Complete!

 

I finally finished my crochet birthday dress!!

This piece has been such a fun journey from picking out the perfect yarn to watching all the colors come together into something so unique and full of personality. I’m honestly so happy with how it turned out. The texture, the fit, the way the colors blend… it just feels right.

On top of that, I’ve officially completed the written pattern too! That part always takes just as much focus as making the piece itself, but it’s so worth it knowing I’ll be able to share it with you all.

Now that the dress is done, I’m moving on to the next part of the set: a matching purse 👜💖 I already have some ideas in mind to tie it all together, and I can’t wait to see how it complements the dress.

Thank you for being here and following along with my projects it really means a lot. More updates soon!
