Method: The dress is knitted top-down in the round, in Stockinette Stitch. First, the narrow and double layered yoke of the dress is knitted, and then a series of increases are made to create the volume of the body. Hereafter, the each puffy sleeve is knitted seperately, and then knitted together with the yoke. To finish the dress, a elastic thread is inserted into the hems of the shoulders, sleeves and yoke, to secure the right fit.
