WHAT IS IT?
A crochet pattern for a rib dress with thin straps, scoop neck and side slits. The dress can be made in any size and length and with or without slit! The dress is supposed to fit comfortably and not too tight - there is extra fabric on the hip area which is why the dress only works if your hip/bum measurements is larger than your bust.

The pattern is very simple and easy to follow - there are some process photos showing the panels before they are connected. You could also use this construction if you wanted to sew a dress with regular fabric.
A big thank you to Esther (green dress) and Marie (brown dress) for testing the pattern!
