Pureribdress
The Pureribdress is an off-shoulder bodycon dress that is knitted seamlessly top down in double rib pattern. It is knitted with raglan increases that aren't visible because the collar hides them. The dress is shaped with decreases towards the waist and increases towards the hips. The double rib pattern creates a feminine silhouette that highlights the curves of the woman wearing it.
It's knitted with long sleeves and the length of the body (the sample is knitted in a mini length) can be adjusted individually. Simply add more length to it and remember that eventually you will need more yarn.
The dress pattern includes the instructions for the shirt!
