Blithe
An easy summer pattern that does double duty with a size range that includes infants up to girls’ size 10. This sweet sundress can be worn long or short for little darlings and becomes a Boho chic top for older girls. Icord shoulder straps keep things breezy while cloverleaf eyelet pattern is simple enough for the newest knitter. Worked entirely in the round means no seaming and minimal finishing! Whip this little cutie up in sport weight in the space of a weekend
DIFFICULTY: Beginner.
SIZING & FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Dress fits sizes 3Months to 4T/ Tank fits sizes 2T-10/12 girls.
The nature of the design allows it to fit a range of sizes in different ways. For best results choose size based on bodice width regardless of whether you are knitting as a tank or dress. The length of the skirt can be shortened or lengthened accordingly.
Tank is intended to be worn with 4-6” negative ease as ribbed bodice will stretch. Suggested tank sizing is very forgiving and is best regarded as a guideline. Take the time to compare measurements to intended wearer so you can make the most informed decision as to size. Shown in size XL as both dress and top.
