Southern Hemisphere Spring Freebie!!! Moana will be free for the month.

Moana is a light and beautiful summer dress with a gorgeous shape and drape. It is knit from the top down and features a v-neck, lacy sleeve cast off and a 4 point skirt.

The dress is seamless and knit from the top down. The bodice is knit at gauge, starting off being knit flat and then carried on in the round after joining under the arms. The skirt is knit on bigger needles at a looser gauge to make it light and give it a gorgeous drape.
