Let it go! a dress for all those frozen fans!

A top down dress in one piece fitted around the chest gently flaring in an A-line. The length can be very easily adjusted right from a hip length top to a full length dress, and instructions for this are given.

The snowflake pattern has a chart and written instructions.

Sizes:
22, 24, 26, 28” chest, length is fully adjustable.

Gauge:
Gauge is important, at least the number of stitches to 4”. As the length is so adjustable the number of rows to 4” isn’t critical and instructions are given for those of you who get the right number of stitches but wrong number of rows when testing the gauge

A 4-4.5 mm needle to cast on and 3.5mm circular needle for the main knit. A button size about 10mm ish.

Techniques:
Knit, Purl, M1, knitting flat, knitting in the round. Stranded knitting.

Yarn:
Any sock weight yarn, wool, cotton, silk that has about 400m/100g should give the correct tension.

Largest size 28” chest requires 1000m main colour and about 250m contrast yarn.
