Knitting For Olive | Peacock Dress Pattern & Yarn Pack
Twirl-Worthy Elegance in Every Stitch
The Peacock Dress is a beautiful blend of delicate lace and practical design—perfect for little ones who love to twirl. Featuring a swingy A-line silhouette, the dress is worked seamlessly in the round from the bottom up using one strand of soft and breathable Merino.
The body showcases a graceful lace stitch pattern, while the sleeves are worked separately in stockinette stitch and joined to the skirt at the underarms with raglan shaping for a smooth, tailored fit. A classic crew neckline is worked back and forth and includes a small side opening at the shoulder, secured with a button and crocheted loop for easy dressing.
Designed for both beauty and comfort, the Peacock Dress is an ideal project for your next handmade heirloom.
