“The Ribbed Dress for Little Miss” is knitted using stretchy self- striped sock yarn. Just because something is labelled as “sock yarn”- doesn’t mean you have to make socks!
The dress features round neckline, slightly flared skirt and short-sleeves. It’s an easy to wear pull-on with a close-fitting top. The half circle skirt sits a little below the knees. For this seamless dress, knitted top down, you begin with the neck. As this dress is designed with a turtleneck neckline, it is very easy to start. The sleeves and the bottom of the dress are finished with narrow edging along, in the same style as neckline.
The big advantage of working top down is that you can adjust the length of the sleeves and dress length to suit your needs.
“The Ribbed Dress for Little Miss” is knitted using Rico Design Superba Cotton Stretch Print superwash fine and soft cotton and wool blend: a colour mix of red, purple, green and blue shades.
The knitting pattern is easy to follow.
