Description
A close-fitting stretch mini dress that is different on each side. On the right, a bound sleeveless armhole; on the left, a long sloping shoulder that ends in a small cap. The body ends in a V front and back, and four flared panels hang from it, so curved seams sweep across the hips and the hem falls into points.

Finished garment, measured flat. Chest, waist and hips are half the measurement all the way round; hips is the top of the hips, where the body meets the flared panels. Length is from the right shoulder beside the neck to the front point; the side points hang lower. Inches / centimetres.
Key details
- Every edge of the flared panels is marked JOIN and a letter, A to H, on the pattern. An edge only goes to the edge with the same letter.
- Every piece is cut once, single layer and printed side up.
- Cut about 10% smaller than the body at the chest, for a second-skin fit. It suits a bust of about 79, 85, 90, 96, 102 and 111 cm, XS to XXL. In a firmer knit, go up a size.
- The pattern comes on two A0 sheets for a copy shop. The tiles in the home-print file are laid out by their numbers, as the workflow explains.
