This dress is worked in two separate halves: the body and the skirt. The body is knit from side to side in two separate halves, which are joined with a Kitchener seam at the back.

The skirt is worked from the bottom up, and then joined to the top with a 3 needle bind-off.

It’s been worked on a narrower needle than would normally be used for DK weight wool in order to give it a tighter texture.
