FOREVERRIBDRESS
The Foreverribdress is a simple bodycon dress that is knitted seamlessly top down in double rib pattern. It has a mock neck that matches the pattern of the body and a neat icord finish at the armholes. Depending on individual preference, the instructions offer the option of working waist decreases or knitting the dress straight without decreases. The corresponding areas are marked with notes and will guide you through the pattern.
Additionally, three different lengths are described – this design can also be worked as a top, as a mini dress or as a midi length dress with a side slit. Despite its midi length, this dress is lightweighted and is perfect for wearing in summer.

Size guide:
The dress should be knitted with a negative ease of approx. 8 - 10 cm to give a nice figure-hugging fit. The size is determined by the bust circumference, which is approximately
80 cm (88 cm) 95 cm (103 cm) 110 cm (118 cm) 125 cm (133 cm) 140 cm (148 cm) 155 cm (163 cm).
If the bust circumference is between two sizes, you can decide individually whether the dress should be tighter or more casual. However, it is generally possible to choose the smaller size, as the ribbed pattern is very stretchy.
It is also possible to work waist decreases. If these are knitted, the waist measurement is reduced by a quarter of the stitches. This corresponds to a waist circumference of approx. 55 (60) 65 (71) 77 (83) 88 (94) 99 (105) 111 (116) cm.

The dress is knitted with one thread Verona by Lamana 25g/180m.
