Breakfast in the Garden Dress (Sizes 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) {6, 7, 8, 9, 10}) — € () or → See this pattern on Ravelry Breakfast in the Garden Dress is the little (non) black dress for knitters. The front ties add a feminine touch while the simple stitch pattern makes the colors of speckled yarns really pop. This design is prefect for those colors that look pretty in the skein but are hard to coordinate. By making it a dress on its own you don’t have to match it to anything. Have fun picking your favorite color! This dress is worked seamlessly from the top down, with the neckline being an integral part of the design that is worked at the same time as the garment. As a top down design, you can easily adjust the length. This pattern includes both a pocketed version and a pocketless version. It comes with photo and video tutorials. This design is graded with inclusive sizing in mind, designed to fit actual bust sizes from 76 cm / 30 inches to 168 cm / 66 inches. Measurements are given in both cm and inches. If you have knit the Breakfast in the Garden top, this dress shares the same construction but the shaping is different. It has a slightly wider shoulder, a shallower neckline and more positive ease.
