Rosa knit dress

This sculptural knit dress is the most striking garment of the fall! The model’s stunning details include asymmetrical lines and deep slits in the front and back. Knitted from the top down, the front panels of the dress are easy to customize to suit your own style. You can also knit a gorgeous sweater from the same pattern by knitting the front and back pieces to the same length. Made from Hehku yarn, this long design with an easy raised knit surface is surprisingly quick to knit. ​
