So pretty in green colour, this lovely summer dress is a great addition for the summer wardrobe of your little fashionista. The dress is knitted bottom up with fancy and easy to memorise lace pattern, which is followed by pretty textured stitch. Easy to knit with its bottom up construction and no seams, this dress features pretty details such as jugged bottom edge and top line at front, I-cord ties and A-shape.
The Dandelion Dress is knitted in the round on circular needles up to underarms, and then the front and back are finished separately. After body of the dress is complete the stitches are picked up along the armholes for I-cord finishing.
Offered in nine sizes from baby to teen, the pattern is easy to follow and suitable for intermediate knitters. It contains lace chart, row-by row instructions and photo tutorial for both jagged edge and I-cord finishing.
