Introducing the Downtown Sweater Dress!

This lovely piece came to be simply because I saw a sweater dress online that I really wanted that was sold out, so I just decided to make one instead!

The Downtown Sweater Dress uses bulky weight yarn and is
perfectly oversized, comfy and easily styled. Pair it with your favorite button down, a fun hat, some chunky boots OR your favorite shoe for a simple but fun look. Add all of the accessories you want or none at all, this piece is very forgiving!

The sweater vest dress is worked in the round and then divided to create the front and back. This pattern was written for someone who is 5’ 4”, please lengthen as you see fit. Additionally, I sized up for a more oversized look.
