Pattern review: B*trendy #9 dress 1756

The pattern

Dress with full length sleeves, fold over front and pockets.

Additional info:

• 98-176 (3yo - 16yo) - made a 104
  
• Recommended fabrics: wovens
• Rated 2/5
• B*trendy #9

The fabric

• ca 0,5 meter of cable knit in dusty rose from rijstextiles.com 

Instructions:

I did notice there were pretty elaborate instructions for the flap pockets. I omitted these pockets and didn't really look at the rest of the instructions. The remainder of the dress is pretty self explainatory.

Fit:
I made a 104 (4yo) and there is a little bit less wearing ease than pictures show. I like the dress as it is, and the fabric has enough stretch. 

 

Conclusion

I really like the dress. The fold over front is a nice detail, but not suitable for all prints. The rest of the dress is perfect for a winter dress. The sleeves are spacious and warm (great to wear a shirt underneath) and the neck line is snug and high.
