The Amarillo Bobble Sleeve Crochet Dress is my newest crochet pattern featured in Crochet Foundry Magazine’s Fall Issue. Dress it up with a pair of knee-high boots or dress it down and layer over leggings. Easily customize the length of the dress to your taste. The oversized trendy crochet bobble sleeves make a bold statement! This crochet pattern includes a video tutorial on YouTube.

Yarn
I chose Brava Sport for the Amarillo Bobble Sleeve Crochet Dress for a few reasons; price, warmth and weight. I knew the dress would require a significant amount of yarn due to its oversized fit. Not only is Brava affordable but it’s also soft and durable. Brava will keep you warm but also survive wash after wash. I chose Sport weight so the dress would not end up too heavy. I found the yarn comparable to a DK weight, so it’s not too thin.
