Cara Ruffle Dress
The Cara Ruffle Dress is an adorable and feminine garment that you'll love to knit and wear. This lovely dress is designed to be worked from the top down in a delightful stockinette stitch, making it perfect for knitters of all skill levels who enjoy a variety of techniques.
To start, you will knit the back piece flat, after which the shoulders and front piece are also created and worked flat for a seamless look. The final touch comes as you work the body in the round, allowing for a smooth and continuous fabric flow. This pattern includes charming ruffles, which are expertly shaped using short rows, adding a playful and elegant touch to the dress.
The neckline, ruffles, and hem are beautifully finished off with the i-cord technique, creating a polished appearance that elevates the overall design of the garment. This finishing technique is perfect for adding a modern twist while ensuring durability.
The pattern provides guidance on using two original yarns to achieve the best results. One of these is Carpe Diem from Lang Yarns, known for its quality and softness. The other original yarn option is the eco-friendly Pura Lana Ecologica from Sesia, which is gentle on the skin and environmentally conscious. To complete this beautiful dress using the Pura Lana Ecologica yarn, you will need a quantity ranging from 300 to 600 grams, depending on your size, which equates to approximately 10.75 to 21.25 ounces.
Whether you're looking to add a fun dress to your wardrobe or create a special gift for a loved one, the Cara Ruffle Dress pattern delivers an enjoyable knitting experience along with stunning results.
