Camille Dress

Description

The Camille Dress is worked smoothly right with raglan increases in one piece from top to bottom. The two shoulder parts are first worked separately from one another for forming the cutouts which can be carried on both sides until they are then closed in turn at the front part for the round neck cutout. Then the fit of the dress is worked with classic raglan increases in the Hin-R as well as with additional increases to shape the overlapping back parts. As soon as the desired number of stitches has been reached and the sleeves are separated from the body, the body of the dress is worked smoothly on the right and the increases for the overlapping back parts are henceforth worked in EVERY row, i.e. in the forward- and back-r. Once the body has reached the waist, the overlapping back parts are knitted together and all body stitches are chained with an I-cord edge. Subsequently, stitches are again picked up along the I-Cord edge and the skirt of the dress is worked smoothly on the right in rounds with increases along the sides to work out the multiple width for the hips. The hem of the dress is also worked with the help of an I-cord. Finally, the sleeve stitches are resumed and new stitches are knitted out of the body under the armpits. The sleeves are then worked smoothly on the right for a few centimeters in rounds and also chained with an I-cord. The round neck cutout on the front part and the overlapping V cutout on the back part are also cleaned using an I cord. Finally, the elastic band on the inside is pulled through the I-cord, so that a slight waisting of the dress is ensured.The length is rather short (center of the thighs) and due to the option of being able to wear the dress on both sides, it can be worn either with a sensational back neckline and a rather stricter, highly closed front part or with a deep V neckline on the front part.
