The Fanø Dress is worked in the round from the bottom up in stranded colour knitting using several different yarns. Lowermost is a ribbed edge, then you continue in colour-work pattern in the round according to chart A and then in stripe pattern according to chart B. Then you cast off to shape armholes and work the front (with V-neck) and back separately, back and forth. Finally, you work the ribbed neck and sleeve edges.
