“A combination of easy-to-knit stockinette stitch and a showy cable creates a warm, roomy dress any little girl would love to wear.”

Pullover dress, very loose fitting. Back and front are knit separately from ribbed edging up to slightly above natural waistline, where combination of decreases and beginning of cable pattern causes a gathered effect in the skirt. Dropped sleeves fall slightly below elbow length. Wide neckline has stitches picked up to knit a ribbed edging.
