This summer dress is made up from triangular motifs, joined together in a modern, vibrant fashion. The way of assembling the triangular pieces, shown in the drawing below, shapes the neckline and shoulders, widens the hip area, and forms a slightly curved hem.

The sizes in the text are given in this format: S - M - L - XL - XXL. The pattern is written in US terminology. However, the measurements are given in both cm and inches, while hook sizes are given in millimeters.

Gauge given in the information above is for hook 3.5 mm.

The written pattern is accompanied by 2 video tutorials which show the join of the motifs in the last round.

The dress consists of 44 triangular motifs, whose one side is 19 - 21 - 23 - 24 - 25 cm long (7.4 - 8.2 - 9 - 9.4 - 9.8 in). You will need 20 triangles for the front piece, 20 for the back, and 4 side motifs in the area from your armpit to the waist (triangles marked 21-24), which belong both to the front and the back of the dress. The front and back pieces are identical. The length from shoulder to hem is about 85 - 90 - 100 - 110 - 115 cm (33 - 35 - 39 - 43 - 45 in). My size, shown in the pictures, is S.

As you will see in the drawing, finished bust is several cm (an inch or two) smaller than the standardized bust sizes. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, crochet cotton garments tend to stretch quite a bit when worn, so once you put on the dress it will be wider around your body. Secondly, this model is intended to stretch in the bust area, while it is meant to stay unstretched around the waistline so as to point out your curves. Therefore, choose the pattern size according to your bust size (or according to your widest area - waist, for example, if your figure is different).
