Like a cloud Dress - Adult (english)

Like A Cloud Dress is a lovely, oversized mohair dress with beautiful decreases and increases and purl sequences creating a nice pattern. It is knitted top-down on needle 4,5 mm with one thread of mohair. You begin by knitting a casing, where an elastic later will be added, so you can adjust the neckline, when the dress is done. When all of the increases have been knitted the stiches for sleeves are placed to rest, whilst the dress is knitted to your preferred length. Whilst continuing the purl-pattern, you will be increasing in the front, the back, and both the sides to give the skirt of the dress extra width. You will also be knitting German Short Rows alongside your purl sequences to make the skirt longer in the back.
