I have always wanted a dress like this. I saw similar styles in my fashion stores but didn´t wanted to buy another dress. Making clothes that you want is something I always do when I see new article of clothing. The flowy skirt is nice and breathable, even though it can be long and quite wide. The top is nice and supportive. Buttons are a great accessory and add practicality as you can access your dress from the front.

Items needed:
• 2.5 mm hook
• Sport weight yarn for the top – around 300m for size S
• Fingering weight yarn for the skirt – I used around 2300 m
