RECIPE

Honey Dress is an elegant and timeless dress, combining beautiful structures and simple lines. The dress is knitted in Tynn Line, a light and airy yarn that provides a comfortable fit, perfect for both spring and summer wear.

The dress is knitted from the top down, with a lovely Honey structure on the body, which creates an airy and beautiful pattern. The skirt and sleeves are knitted in stockinette stitch to balance the structure and give an elegant, clean expression. This design gives a flattering silhouette and a sophisticated look, while being comfortable and easy to move in.

The dress is knitted from the top down. Work back and forth until the front neckline is finished. Then work in the round. Increase on both the right and wrong sides, a total of 4 increases per round, i.e. on each side of the shoulder stitches. Increase over the sleeve stitches to create puff sleeves. Then increase to create raglan on the sleeves and on the front and back. Finish the sleeves and neckline with an i-cord edge.

I recommend that you try the dress on during the knitting process. Also, note how your swatch has changed after rinsing/soaking, and take this into account when you knit. This way you can knit the perfect garment for your body.

Size guide

Chest measurement of approximately (80) 85 (90) 95 (100) 110 (120) cm corresponds to size (XXS) XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL). The dress has a range of motion of approx. 5 - 15 cm. This means that if you measure approx. 90 cm around the chest, you should knit a size S. Measure yourself before you start knitting.

It is a good idea to knit a sample before you start, to check that the knitting tension is correct. Note that the knitting tension is stated after the dress has been rinsed.
