The dress is knitted top down, with a vent in the neck and one crochet loop as buttonhole. The yoke is knitted in stockinette stitch and the rest of the body in the Erantis lace pattern. For shaping the neck opening, you knit short rows (German short rows). At the neck opening, the sleeves and the body, you knit an I-cord bind off as an edge. The Erantis lace pattern might seem uneven while knitting, but unfolds perfectly after washing and blocking.

From the moment she slipped it on, I felt like I was holding something sacred. The knit hugs gently without constriction, the lace whispers elegance — not fussy, just pure tenderness. Wore it for her christening *and* reused it for newborn photos weeks later. Arrived in pristine condition, folded with care and tied with ribbon. Feels like love, stitched by hand.

Adorable design, but the lace edging started fraying after one gentle hand-wash. Also, the neckline gaped a bit on my petite 2-month-old — needed safety-pinning. Loved the look and feel initially, though. Shipping was quick (3 days), and the seller responded kindly to my concern… but I’m hesitant to order again.

I literally gasped when I opened the box — it’s even more stunning in person! The baby knit is buttery-soft, breathable, and held its shape through diaper changes and snuggles. She looked like a dream during the candle-lighting moment. Delivered in 4 days with handwritten thank-you card. This isn’t just clothing — it’s a keepsake memory made tangible.

Beautiful dress — delicate lace, lovely drape. My baby wore it comfortably during the full 45-min service. Sizing ran slightly snug at shoulders (she’s average 3mo), but stretched nicely. Shipping was solid (5 days), and the team sent tracking updates like clockwork. Would’ve loved a matching bonnet option.

Tears welled up when I first put it on her — she looked so peaceful, so sacred. The texture is luxuriously soft, the lace trim so dainty and refined. Perfect length for photos without tripping hazards. Arrived earlier than expected, in a reusable muslin bag with lavender sachet. Truly thoughtful craftsmanship and care.

So pretty and well-made! The knit is thick yet airy — no scratchiness, even on sensitive baby skin. She wore it for her christening and looked like a little heirloom. Only reason it’s not 5 stars: took 6 days to arrive (still reasonable, but I’d hoped for faster). Love that it’s hand-knit charm meets modern durability.

Wore it for our daughter’s baptism last Sunday — everyone cried! The fit is perfect: roomy enough for diaper coverage but still elegant and timeless. The lace knits held up beautifully during photos and cuddles. Got it on Tuesday, delivered Thursday — wow! And the customer service replied within an hour when I asked about sizing. Heart-meltingly lovely.

Absolutely in love with this christening dress! The soft baby knit feels like a cloud against my newborn’s skin — so gentle and breathable. She looked angelic, with delicate lace details catching the light during the ceremony. Shipped fast (arrived in 3 days!) and the packaging was sweetly wrapped with a tiny note. Pure joy from start to finish! 😊
