BELLA dress - set with GABO Magazine II

The dress is worked in a stockinette stitch with two strands held together, from top to bottom. First, the back of the yoke is worked with increases, then the shoulders are formed with cast-on stitches and worked along the sides of the shoulders. The rest of the yoke is worked together. The body and sleeves are worked in the round. The body, below the armholes, is flared. The sleeves are initially tapered and then flared into bell-shape. Both the body and sleeves are finished with an I-cord. Finally, the neckline is finished.
