Crochet Mini Fall Dress T-Shirt & More Tutorial
Skill Level: Beginners. You will need the same basic crochet stitches like the chain stitch, single crochet, slip stitches, increase and decrease, half-double crochet, chain-skipping, and double crochet up to double treble, plus some basic sewing. The pattern is written in the US instructions. Color changes are used a little, but you must have some practice on them.
Tutorial Timing: Approximately 26 minutes (perfect for learning the fundamentals of crocheting the small dresses so that you can extend the techniques for first baby outfits and then adults. Understanding shaping while working in the rounds using six basic crochet stitches is also a technique worth learning.)
Personalization Tips: If you have a 24cm doll, make a gauge swatch and adjust the initial chains, as it will determine the diameter of the shirt. Measure the Labubu waist correctly before following the pattern. You can also try a different color, like pink and green!
Pattern Type: An on-screen written pattern is available if you find written instructions easy to follow along with.

Crochet Techniques Guide
Here’s a simplified guide to help you understand the most common crochet abbreviations and techniques used in crafting the Labubu outfit:
- Chain Stitch (ch): How to do it: Yarn over and pull through the loop on the hook to form a foundation chain. Purpose: Used to create the base or foundation of your project.
- Single Crochet (sc): How to do it: Insert the hook into the stitch, yarn over, pull through the loop, yarn over again, and pull through both loops on the hook. Purpose: Creates a compact and tight stitch, great for firmness.
- Slip Stitch (sl st): How to do it: Insert the hook into a stitch, yarn over, and pull through both the stitch and the loop on the hook in one motion. Purpose: Used for joining pieces or creating a neat finish.
- Increase (inc): How to do it: Work two single crochet stitches into the same stitch. Purpose: Expands the size of your work by adding extra stitches.
- Decrease (dec) How to do it: Combine two stitches into one by inserting the hook into the first stitch, then into the next, yarn over, pull through both, and complete as a single stitch. Purpose: Reduces the size of your work, ideal for shaping.
- Half-Double Crochet (hdc) How to do it: Yarn over, insert the hook into the stitch, yarn over again, and pull through all three loops on the hook at once. Purpose: Creates a stitch that’s taller than single crochet but shorter than double crochet.
- Double Crochet (dc) How to do it: Yarn over, insert the hook into a stitch, pull through, yarn over again, pull through two loops, then yarn over and pull through the remaining two loops. Purpose: A versatile stitch that’s taller than single and half-double crochet.
- Double Treble Crochet (dtr) How to do it: Yarn over the hook twice, insert into the stitch, yarn over and pull through, then yarn over and pull through two loops at a time until only one loop remains on the hook. Purpose: Forms a long and open stitch for lacy designs.
- Chain Skipping: How to do it: Skip the specified number of chains indicated in the pattern and continue crocheting into the next designated stitch. Purpose: Helps to create spaces or shapes in your design.
