This is the sixth pattern from the greenhouse knits e-book.

The e-book consists of 8 patterns: two different hats, a pair of socks, long fingerless mitts, a cardigan, a tunic, a shawl and/or scarf and a pattern for small individual leaves to use as decoration or for knitwear embellishments.

#6 is a tunic or a dress worked bottom up. A branch of leaves grows along the left front. The raglan sleeve inset is quite special. It is worked using short rows with live stitches that are put on hold. Then the stitches are slipped to a needle and the sleeve is worked top down and seamlessly also using short rows.
