Here is a pattern for the Mini Free Spirit for an A-line dress. Actually, three dresses, each one with a different pattern stitch for the dress and different sleeve and neck treatment. All made with size 10 crochet cotton and a size 5 steel hook.
The link to the pattern is here:

Have a safe and joy filled New Year, hopefully also filled with plenty of time to crochet :-)
