Bobby Dress is a simple dress with a garter stitch yoke. The dress is worked from the top down using 1 strand of either Merino, Cotton Merino or Pure Silk.
You start working back and forth to create a small split in the back while shaping the neckline with short rows at the same time. The yoke is shaped with raglan increases down to the underarms and the skirt is worked in stockinette stitch in the round and shaped with increases. The sleeves are worked in the round from the top down and you can choose between short sleeves and long sleeves.
