The cute dress is the perfect dress for hot summer days but can be worn also as a layering piece in cooler seasons with a shirt, a longsleeve and leggings. It comes in a huge variety of sizes and each size is created to be worn over a long peri-od of time. Cute as a oversized dress and also works later as a top or tunic. The dress is worked top down, started with I-cord CastOn (alternatively garter stitch) neck and a slit for easier clo-sure/decorative detail in the back neck. It’s worked in stockinette stitch; panels at CF, CB and Side are worked in garter stitch. Eyelet increases are worked besides the raglan seam and at CF/CB. You put the sleeve strap stitches on hold , join on the round and work the body in Rounds, finish with a structured hem and Icord Bind off (alternatively garter stitch) . Pick up again sts for the sleeve strap and finish them with IcordBO (alternatively garter stitch). The icords can be worked in a contrast color to get a interesting effect. The length can be variated very easily, to make only a tunic or top.
