A super fast and easy knit with striking results and stash busting power.

Using cotton or another summer blend yarn your Summer Happy Fun Dress will be cool and airy for the wearer and no doubt will be a hassle to get off her to wash. This is one of those dresses that will last a couple of seasons starting as a dress in a year or two it is likely to still fit the chest and be a good length for a tunic length.

It is knit in the round and uses i-chord for the shoulder ties. The patter is fairly easy with explanations for all stitches and links to videos for techniques such as increases and i-chord.

This pattern includes instructions for both the dress, the tunic and the eyelets. You will notice the tunic is listed separately, however instructions for both are on the one pattern so don’t buy both.
