This gorgeous tunic dress is versatile and easy to wear. In 100% pima cotton - the best quality cotton in the world, and really washes incredibly well. My daughters are still wearing theirs from last year and they look as new. Available in four sizes: 2-3; 4-5; 6-7; 8-9. Its a very generous fit, so the biggest size will maybe fit up to age 11. My 8 year old is still wearing her 6 -7, it is just a bit shorter now so she wears it with jeans for more of the ‘tunic’ rather than the ‘dress’ look. Looks equally good with nothing underneath, or with long sleeved t-shirt, so also brilliant for all seasons. Lovely to knit, and grows quickly. Some simple shaping techniques required and picking up stitches around the neckline.

An updated version of this dress is available in my new book, Anyone Can Knit.
