Vestee Dress Knitting Pattern

Outlined Vestee Dress: This pattern contains directions to knit, crochet detail, the dress shown. This design,called an Outlined Vestee Dress, takes us back to 1954, where it appeared in Modern Needlecraft Magazine. The dress is knit in two parts - skirt and blouse - and then joined to be one piece. The design has a faux pleated skirt, vest detail, double breasted look, along with long sleeves, an interesting collar and back zipper. A truly unique look. The pattern is written for misses size 12, with changes for 14 and 16 in parentheses. This is an intermediate to advance pattern.
