Linen Dress

Linen has a cooling effect and is therefore perfect for summer garments. The yarn Line contains some linen along with cotton and viscose. I have created a comfortable and spacious summer dress with a V-neck both in the front and back. You can just slip this on without worrying about how it fits here or there. It’s a dress I move into as soon as the weather allows. It’s easy to adjust the size in both length and width.

The dress is fun to knit; you start with a few stitches at the back of the neck.
