My first crochet baby dress


I have been trying and trying to get a crochet baby dress right, and I finally did it!!!! I had no idea what to do with it, and one of the girls that I chat with loved it, so I sent it to her as a surprise...she should be getting it today. I used this pattern, I used a 5.5mm hook and it turned out to be a newborn size and not a preemie size..weird?
