Like wearing a soft hug, perfect after a chilly swim or over you PJs on chilly mornings. Knit in two strands held together, Pickles Sommerull which is a lambswool-cotton blend and Pickles Soft Fuzz, a soft blend of brushed alpaca and wool.

The pattern contains instructions for both the tunic dress and tights. The dress is worked from the top of the hood and down. Cast on with Turkish cast on for a seamless beginning. The hood is worked flat, and the piece is then joined in the round. The yoke is made with shorts rows for shaping and raglan increases for sleeves.
The tights are worked top down with short rows in the back.
