Tension gauge swatch
 
Make sure to check your tension by creating a gauge swatch before starting your knit.Cast on 21 stitches and knit 29 rows in stockinette with 4 mm needles for a 10 x 10 cm swatch. Everyone’s tension is different, so if your tension is too tight and your gauge swatch measures too little, change to a thicker needle. If your tension is too loose and your gauge swatch is too wide, change to a thinner needle.
 
Good to know
 
The dress is knitted from bottom to top. The dress is open on each side with a slidt, and knitted in the beginning from the right- and wrong side. It’s connected together around the hips and knitted in round from there. The dress is opened up again around the waist area, divided up for the front and back side and thereafter knitted for the right- and wrong side. The straps are connected by the shoulder.
 
Read through the pattern before starting your project.
 
The yarn quantity required is based on the average, and is therefore an approximate number. The dress can be knitted in any yarn that consists of the same thickness as Organic merino DK or reaches the same gauge as provided. Color is up to you, choose any color combination you like!
