This simple sundress is designed to last through several seasons of play. The linen in CotLin is a great fiber choice, since it is extremely durable, can be machine washed and dried, and gets softer with each laundering. The garter stitch bodice with adjustable straps allows the dress to fit a wide range of sizes. The dress can be worn by itself in summer or with a shirt underneath for cooler weather.

The dress is about knee length on a child in the middle of each size range. The bodice fits the small end of each range with zero ease, and stretches to fit as the child grows. Smaller children can wear the straps crossed in back.
