9531 Half-Pint Dress

It’s a hoodie! It’s a dress! It’s both! This top-down dress can be knit to a length that’s just right. Traditional hoodie details, including a kangaroo pocket, deliver gallons of fun for your half-pint. Pair it with leggings that match for wearing all year round! Dress is knit in the round from the top down, with stitches for the hood picked up along the neckline once the body is finished. Pocket is knit flat separately and sewn on during finishing.
