The Wildflower Tunic is a seamless, top-down tunic that can be easily lengthened into a dress. Designed with generous ease it is perfect to layer over a onsie or long-sleeved t-shirt to keep the recipient cute and cozy. The lack of sleeves and a tunic length are wonderfully practical for little movers intent on making messes. The neck opening has two buttons that fasten at the shoulder.

This pattern has been tech edited and test knitted.
