This pattern contains directions for a sleeveless dress worked seamless from the bottom up, starting with the ruffle. The skirt is worked in the round and the top front and top back are worked separately and flat. The shoulder straps are grafted together in kitchener stitch but may be seamed if you prefer. The edging around the armholes is worked in the round and the edging around the neckline is worked flat.

The jacket is worked seamless and flat from the top down, but the sleeves are worked in the round.

Some of the samples were worked in two colors and some in all one color, using Knit Picks CotLin yarn which is a DK yarn, but a sport weight yarn would work as well. The directions are written for two colors. Just ignore the color change directions if you want to make it all one color.
