Not the dress you are looking for? See more dresses Details *** This pattern is a part of our Zero Waste Collection. Check out the rest of the collection here *** The Zero Waste Dolman Sweater Dress is a simple dolman dress with fabulous oversized front pockets. It is perfect made from a sweater knit for layering in cooler months, or made from a light drapey knit for wearing alone in the summer months. Super easy to sew with step-by-step instructions with pictures. The whole thing is made from a simple rectangle of fabric with no leftovers. Try something new with the clever origami that makes the oversized front pockets. Instructions also included to help you with fit. Sizes: The pattern starts at a size 2 and goes up to a size 14 (kids sizing). File types: A4/Letter size PDF (for home printers), A0 size PDF (for printshops), and a projector file too. Difficulty: Basic Skills All the patterns in the Zero Waste Collection are cut from a single rectangular piece (or pieces if there is a lining) of fabric with no waste. This leaves you with only usable rectangular remnants the size of which depends the size of the pattern and the width of the original fabric. We know that this type of pattern cutting is not a 'fix all' for waste in the sewing world, but it is our step in the right direction and we really hope you enjoy the patterns as much as we do.
