Nyoko

Introducing the Nyoko A-line Dress, a sophisticated garment inspired by the Japanese word for gem, "Nyoko." This stunning dress features intricate cable designs on the sides and collar, making it a true standout piece. The main body of the dress is crafted in stockinette stitch, which beautifully highlights the cable details. The Nyoko dress is constructed in the round up to the armholes, then worked flat to shape the shoulders, ensuring a seamless and elegant look. Knitted using the luxurious airiness of Ask, a Norwegian combed wool yarn from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk, this dress promises comfort and style for any occasion.

Needles: To create this exquisite garment, you will need a 3.5 mm/US 4 circular needle (80 cm) for the hem, a 3.5 mm/US 4 circular needle (100 cm/40”) for the main body, and a 3.5 mm/US 4 straight needle. Feel free to adjust the needle size as necessary to achieve the required gauge for the best results.

Gauge: The ideal gauge for this pattern is 22 stitches and 30 rows in stockinette stitch, using a 3.5 mm/US 4 needle, which should measure a square of 10 cm after blocking. Ensuring the correct gauge will help you achieve the desired fit and appearance for the Nyoko dress.

Notes: The Nyoko A-line Dress pattern is designed to be worked in the round up to the armholes, then transitioning to back and forth knitting as you shape the shoulders. This thoughtful design ensures a better fit and adds sophistication to the overall silhouette. Due to the large number of stitches involved, a circular needle is essential for this project, making the process smoother and more efficient.
