This dress is worked in the round from the hem to the armholes where it is divided for front and back. The sleeves are worked separately and sew in to the armholes. There is a buttoned placket opening on the back neck. Yardage is given for working the pattern as written; if you choose to lengthen the skirt you may want to purchase an extra skein of the MC.
The lace is worked and attached using a perpendicular join which is explained in the pattern instructions.
