The easiest dress in the world on a bad model (me) and a bonus easy jacket

I have never had a post generate as many hits as Easiest dress in the world did. There were a bunch of request to have a photo of me in the dress. So here it is. A slightly closer view of the neckline. The weather is supposed to turn cool, so I made a little jacket to go with the dress. You can make one too. yes this is easiest to make in a knit. You can make this in a woven as well, but you need to make sure to leave enough ease so you can do things like move your arms. This is the schematic for cutting. I used my pink sweater as a guide for cutting. I wanted the sleeves to be wider, so I cut them wider. This is what you get after cutting.   Then I cut open the front. Be careful that you only cut one layer. Cut a neck curve. Finish the raw edges any way that makes you happy. Wear.
