This pattern includes written and photo instructions and has sizing adaptions noted in areas where increases can be made. This pattern is easily worked up and is a beautiful fitted dress for any occasion. I modeled the dress and I am a size small to medium about 5’6” in height and I used about 2 1/2 skeins. For larger sizes I would suggest up to 4 skeins. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Enjoy!
