Yarn Suggestions:
This dress works beautifully in solid colors, bold stripes, or playful color-blocking. If using a textured yarn like pomp-a-doodle, I recommend alternating a variegated yarn with a neutral color.

The Knit Fit Dress is beginner-friendly but offers enough flair for seasoned knitters to enjoy. The seamless construction (minus the shoulders) and simple shaping make it quick to knit and even quicker to love. Whether you’re rocking bold textures or vibrant colors, this dress is your ticket to knitting success. ✨
