This Japanese cotton dress is made from a beautiful Nani Iro fabric. Nani Iro is a Japanese designer fabric brand. My mum brought the fabric back for me from Japan. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to wait for just the right sewing pattern to do the floral pattern justice.

Japanese knitting patterns have always intimidated me, even though I can read Japanese. This is because Japanese knitting patterns use charts and diagrams, not worded descriptions as found in English patterns. For example, an English pattern might say, “single crochet to end of row”.
