This strappy embroidered pinafore (aka sleeveless dress) was designed for the #5381 Snuggly 100% Cotton DK brochure by Sirdar. The two-colour raglan garment is knit flat in pieces from the garter stitch bottoms up, then seamed together at the sides before folding down the top bands to create casings for the two twisted cords. How to-do diagrams for the twisted cords, running stitch, and lazy daisy stitch embroidery patterns are provided along with the schematics.
