The Nordic summer dress is a simple A- shape dress. It has a wide fit with deep armhole openings. The dress is worked bottom up with double thread and both front and back are alike. Even though the dress might appear rather heavy while still on the needles, it has a soft and light feel and is wonderfully cool against the body. Due to its heaviness, the dress can be worn with a belt around the waist.

Size guide:
A summer dress with straps will always seam looser and wider as the given measurements.
Choose a size that is 0- 5 cm slimmer (negative ease) than your bust measurement.
The stated measurement on the front page is for the finished garment.
