Crochet dresses are the summer trend you need to stitch

Crochet dresses are everywhere at the moment, and the perfect project for crochet lovers. Check out our favourite crochet dress ideas from crafters across the world

Who said yarn crafts like knitting and crochet were just for winter? We’re loving the trend to make a crochet dress – and the ideas we’re seen have us seriously inspired to make our own.

A crochet dress is a brilliant piece to add to your summer handmade wardrobe. It’s great to throw on over your swimming costume on the beach, or wear on a sunny day at home, too.

Crafters across the world have been taking to social media to share their crochet dress projects – and we’ve been so inspired to stitch our own.

A crochet dress is a brilliant project to make if you’ve mastered the basic crochet stitches. It will take longer to stitch than a crochet top or crochet cushion – but the results will be worth it!

We’ve rounded up our favourite crochet dresses from crafters across the world to inspire your next project.

Gorgeous granny squares

We love a granny square project – so if you’ve learned how to crochet granny squares, why not use your skills to make a granny square dress like @iam.lanka on Instagram. The blue border really pulls the project together.

Chic and simple

A neutral colour palette for your crochet projects, like this dress by @shopdaisyanddime on Instagram.

This would look fabulous thrown on over a swimming costume on the beach on holiday.

Lovely in lilac

A mini dress is a much quicker crochet project to finish than a maxi! And this lilac one from @grannygaia on Instagram is adorable. The tie shoulder straps are the perfect final detail.

Serious showstopper

You can make a crochet dress to match every occasion! This stunning wedding dress from @crochetwithalannamiall on Instagram is truly jaw-dropping.

We love the ruffles through the skirt – there’s so much incredible detail in this project.
