The bodice is knit from the top down in one piece. The sleeves and trim are worked in seed stitch, the rest in Stockinette stitch. It’s a fairly quick project since you don’t have to knit the skirt. Sewing the bodice to the skirt can be a little tricky. Pin it well. You may even want to hand baste it together before using a machine. When using a machine place the fabric on the bottom and the knit bodice on top to prevent it from getting caught.
