Experience the joy of knitting a beautiful garment that is crafted seamlessly from the top down. The project begins with a flat-knit construction featuring an elegant I-cord edging, transitioning into a cozy round knitting technique. You'll skillfully pick up stitches to create a delightful welt, followed by a charming ruffled skirt worked in the round for a feminine touch. The sleeves are also worked effortlessly in the round, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable knitting experience. This pattern includes detailed instructions for creating an I-cord neck finish along with an I-cord button loop closure for added sophistication and functionality.
Essential Skills: This pattern is suitable for knitters with a range of skills—be prepared to use long-tail cast on, knitting, purling, increasing, decreasing, and mastering the art of knitting in the round. You'll also pick up stitches, work a stylish welt (with clear explanations and links to online tutorials provided), craft an I-cord edging, and complete an attached I-cord along with a button loop closure for the neckline (comprehensive explanations are included).
