This garment is worked in 2 stages. The body is knitted from the top down. Stitches are picked up from the top in order to work the upper bust and shoulders.

Back and front shoulder stripes are joined together using the 3-needle bind off method.

The finished garment measurements are approximately:
Length 81 cm / 31.88 in
Bust 62 cm / 24.40 in
Hips 66 cm / 25.98 in

For this project you need to know how to :

• knit
• purl
• knit and purl 2 stitches together
• yarn over
• pass slipped stitch over the next stitch

You could increase the skirt length or decide to knit a top rather than a dress. Either way, I hope you will enjoy it :)
