The project is made with the broomstick stitch.

It’s worked from bottom to top, on the flat in round-trip turns in two panels.

The dress is customizable according to length preference.

Instruction are for XS, S, M, L and XL size.

Bust circumference: 70, 70, 80, 88, 106 cm (it fits up to 86, 86, 95, 103, 121 cm)

Hips: 80, 88, 98, 106, 124 cm (it fits up to 95, 103, 113, 121, 139 cm)

Length: 86, 88, 88, 92, 94 cm

The project have a negative ease of about 15 cm, it means that the dress is smaller than actual body measurements, but the stitch is elastic enough to be stretched up to 15 cm.

Example: I wear a M size (80 cm) and my bust is 92 cm.

Consider this to choose the size.

To make the dress in addiction to the crochet hook, you will also need stitch markers and a cue stick or a ruler of 3,3 cm wide; you can also use a rigid cardboard of this width.
