Livia Dress and Skirt
Livia Dress and Skirt is worked bottom up. The yoke of the dress is worked as a “raglan with a twist” where you along the way only decrease across the front and back and then right before the neck line decrease a lot of sts across the sleeve - creating a slight puffy effect on the sleeves. Short rows are worked to make the neck opening lower in the front.
