Vera Mini Dress is a modern, fitted knitted dress with a clean and feminine silhouette. The dress features a flattering fit with waist shaping and a minimalist look, making it both elegant and versatile in styling.
The dress is worked bottom-up in the round. You begin with the skirt, allowing you to customize the length before continuing with the waist shaping and upper body. After shaping the waist, the work is divided into front and back pieces. The back piece is finished first in ribbing, after which the front piece is shaped with decreases and finished with a ribbed neckline.
