Summer Cardigans

New from Serendipity Girls Designer Dresses

Although it’s Autumn here in England, I have some more summer knitwear that I have just designed and made. My customers and followers in warmer parts of the world (and that includes Singapore, Australia and the USA) may want to take a peak to see what I’ve been busy making.


The summer cardigans Hot Summer & Seaspray (both for age 2-3), Pebble Beach for age 4-5 and Sea Breeze for age 6-7 are made in a lovely lace crochet pattern. 

The first three cardis are made in a 100% slubbed cotton and are light and airy, drape well and are comfortable to wear. The Sea Breeze cardi is made from 50% bamboo & 50% cotton yarn which feels soft and luxurious. All have short sleeves, a real iridescent shell button and a designer touch of scallop shells on the lower edge. They are all machine washable.


All are unique pretty designs and are ideal for holidays and beachcombing! Also I will shortly be adding this pattern design to my Ravelry shop for those who wish to make the cardigans.

Matilda dress by SerendipityGDDs

MATILDA dress for age 2  £25.99

This dress is a cute little cotton one with an unusual print design of Australian birds perched amongst the wattle. My inspiration was my love of these birds from trips to Australia we have had in both 2008 & 2013. The lorikeets were feeding from my hand at the Top Tourist site at Lake Maraboon near Emerald Queensland on 25/8/2008. See the picture.

The dress has short sleeves, a round neck and two buttons down the back. The soft 100% cotton fabric is ideal for summer. A unique dress that is simply adorable, just like the Aussie birds.

Strawberry dress by SerendipityGDDs

New from Serendipity Girls Designer Dresses

“What have you done today to make you feel proud?”
I was listening to the inspirational song called Proud, sung by Heather Small, whilst finishing my latest dress ‘Strawberries’. Every dress that I create is a proud achievement when it finally comes together.

Sometimes I start out with a sketched design and then amend it as I go along. Sometimes the addition of a trim or button makes the dress come alive and it ‘steps out of the ordinary’.
The red satin ribbon trim on ‘Strawberries’ was not planned at the beginning but I thought it added zing to the finished dress and emphasised the colour of strawberries. The fully lined sundress is made for a 2 year old and has a lovely strawberry print on cotton voile. As it’s 100% cotton it is machine washable so it doesn’t matter if ice cream gets dropped down the front!

PIPPA dress and reversible belt

New from Serendipity Girls Designer Dresses

My latest little girls dress design launched 21/02/12 (how's that for a palindrome?) was surprisingly inspired by a fish! I watched a TV programme about the Great Barrier Reef and saw a purple and orange fish. The dress is called ‘Pippa’ and is for girls aged 3. The trendy double hanky hem design is in a plain purple cloth with a sweetheart neckline. It is sleeveless, with two buttons at the back and a pop of colour with a detachable belt  in orange /lime green which is reversible to feature either colour. The dress has a lined bodice, French seams and would certainly attract admiring glances.
