Buy the Washington Dress sewing pattern from Cashmerette. Mixing the comfort of a knit bodice with the fabric possibilities of a woven skirt, the Washington Dress gives you the freedom to play with colours and textures, for a look that’s uniquely you. Like all Cashmerette patterns, the bodice comes in three cup sizes (C/D, E/F, G/H), which makes fitting a cinch!
The knit bodice features a figure-enhancing scoop neckline and three sleeve variations: short, three quarter, or full length. The A-line skirt cleverly combines woven fabric with a heavy knit yoke, eliminating the need for closures and allowing you to comfortably slip the dress over your head. For additional tummy control, the front yoke can be made from a woven fabric.
