Sunny Coast dress

Knitted with Sport/5-ply weight cotton yarn, the Sunny Coast Dress is the ultimate summer garment designed for endless fun in the sun. This beautifully crafted dress is knitted in the round up to the underarms, after which the front and back are knitted separately in a back-and-forth technique. To start, you'll use longer circular needles to knit the skirt part, where you can create delightful pleats that add a playful touch to the design. Once the skirt is complete, simply switch to shorter circular needles to continue knitting the bodice of the dress. After finishing the top parts of both the back and front, you’ll seamlessly close the shoulder seams. The next step involves picking up stitches around the neckline for a polished neck finishing that enhances the overall look of the dress. This pattern also invites creativity; the dress can be beautifully adorned with beads, buttons, or other craft supplies to make it uniquely yours. If you're looking for an extra special touch, consider decorating the front of the dress with a stunning knitted flower from my popular Knitted Flowers Collection. This versatile dress pattern not only provides an excellent opportunity to showcase your knitting skills, but it also makes for a fabulous addition to any summer wardrobe. Whether you're knitting it for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, the Sunny Coast Dress is sure to become a cherished favorite for sunny days and special occasions.
