This sporty little color-blocked ribbing dress is designed to enhance your figure, making it a flattering addition to your wardrobe. With a form-fitting silhouette in mind, I've crafted this dress with a suggested negative ease of 2" - 3", ensuring it hugs your curves beautifully. Perfect for both casual and dressy occasions, this dress will quickly become a favorite in your collection.

The construction of this dress involves working from the bottom up in several pieces, which are then seamed together. The seams not only provide a polished finish but also add structure, crucial for larger garments like dresses. For this project, I opted for FibraNatura's Sensational wool, distributed by Universal Yarn. This choice creates a forgiving fabric that resists sagging, keeping your dress looking sharp wear after wear.

As a convenient tip from my mother's wisdom, I recommend wearing a cotton slip underneath knitted dresses. This simple addition can significantly reduce stretching when you sit, allowing you to maintain a polished appearance throughout your day.

Whether you're a seasoned knitter or trying your hand at a new project, this color-blocked ribbing dress pattern is a perfect blend of style and comfort. Get ready to impress with this unique design that showcases your creativity while keeping your wardrobe fresh and vibrant!
