The dress is knitted from the top down in stockinette stitch. It is knitted back and forth until the front cutout is finished, then it is knitted in the round. Increase on both the right and wrong sides, a total of 4 increases per round, around the 6 shoulder stitches. This means that you increase before and after the shoulder stitches, otherwise you use raglan as increases. You will also increase for puff sleeves. The sleeves and neckline are finished with an I-cord edge, while the dress is finished with a double-folded edge.
