HELP! I've "lost" a lovely pattern for a child's dress I spotted on Ravelry and I can't find it again. Hoping someone else remembers

I found a lovely pattern for a child's dress on Ravelry one day. It wasn't the main focus of the picture, but it was mentioned in passing in another pattern (I can't actually remember the other garment at all). The lady who uploaded it to the site has 5 children as far as I remember and I think is Scandinavian. The dress is very dark grey or black in the picture and the little model is one of the designer's children and she has red hair and appears to have Down's syndrome.

Does anybody out there remember seeing this pattern and maybe have it saved in their favourites?? I would be ecstatically glad if anybody remembered it and knew where to find it, to quote Tabby McTat.

Anybody? I'd love to make this dress for DD. Maybe I can use my search history, if only I could remember roughly when it was I saw it.

Any more clues? What age for, was it a free or paid pattern - sleeveless or not - cables? looked like a fluffy wool or not, lots of projects made?

It's the sort of thing I might have looked at but need more clues!

Hi Moaning, and thank you for answering! The dress had long sleeves, was quite "dour" looking I suppose. It had a "smock" effect on the bodice but was otherwise very plain- no collar, no frou frous at all. Afair (or maybe I was hoping) it was in age 3-4. Can't remember if it was free or not but I think it might have been. The main problem is that I didn't find it through a standard search- I was looking for something else, cannot remember what, and clicked on the designer to find other things by her- this dress was on the same page as another thing entirely featuring the child's sister, the dress I liked was only mentioned in passing, although there were several pictures of it in the details. I can't remember how many people were making it. Then like a complete turnip I got distracted and didn't save it.

I've found it!! I searched through thousands of my Ravelry visits over the last six months and it eventually.

I wouldn't have found it - I was looking for Scandi sounding names! Looks cute but an awful lot of stocking stitch to plough through

You could at least have given us a link that worked !!Grin Hours I spent looking for prolific Scandi mother !!

I am so sorry! I accidentally added "found" onto the end of the address. Oops. Here it is properly I hope.
