in stitches: knickerbockers

A birthday gift for a little three-year-old girl. Smocked dress with crochet sleeves. Aqua knickerbockers with vintage fabric trim. Two buttons on the cuff mean the pants can be worn below the knee, or above. Perfect for exploring rock pools. Got my tiny brain whirring to make the short even more gorgeous- perhaps a flat-front waistband with a tie on the next ones. Definitely a pocket for collection of sticks, rocks and shells.
Looking at lovely creatives over here, today.
