Sparrow Dress Pattern
This is a Printed Pattern only
The simplest of our dresses to make Sparrow has a nautical feel. Easy to knit in graduated moss and stocking stitch stripes with moss stitch edgings. The front divides with each side being knit separately, stitches are then picked up for the front bib which has yarn over buttonholes. Front and back are knit flat and then joined at the shoulders, and stitches picked up for the moss stitch neck band. With a simple gathered skirt sewn on.
Skills required: casting on, casting off, knitting, purling, increasing, decreasing, picking up stitches and yarn overs. The skirt is machine sewn on.
