Triple Dress

 I've written and published over 70 patterns.

My Triple Top is the most popular to date.

I really wanted to extend this same pattern and elevate it to a dress!

Here is my Triple Dress.


I used the same yarn, because I'm completely obsessed with BILLOW!

At 100% Pima Cotton, it feels like a million dollars.

Not to mention it comes in 24 stunning colours!

Check them all out HERE.


Notes before you begin:

  • This pattern is worked flat
  • Front and back panel are worked flat as one piece, leaving a neck hole.
  • The sleeves are worked flat back and fourth on each side.
  • Then folded in half and seamed on the sides and under the arm and down the sides.
  • Chain 3 at the beginning of each row DOES count as a stitch.
  • This can be customized to any length (add more rows) or any width (add more chains to begin with).
  • The fit is meant to be loose, there is an ease of +4"
  • If you would like a tighter fit, size down.
  • Make sure to follow this pattern by measuring the WIDEST part of your body (bust? thighs?, etc)
