The beach is calling, but so is your yarn. What’s a knitter to do when sand and stitches both beckon you? Combine the two while you soak up the sun! Beach Bum cover up adds beauty to function whether wearing it as a short dress or side split skirt. Open shell lace graces the bottom while a clever moebius covers up top. The multiple tying options ensure it stays right where you want it while catching sun rays or splashing in the waves.

Constructed top down, seamlessly.

The tech edited pattern is fully written with a diagram and schematic.

Special Notes:

Size It: designed to be worn with 5”/ 13cm to 9”/ 23cm negative ease on the brioche section. Photos show same Beach Bum size (M) on a 38”/ 96.5cm bust and 41”/ 104cm hip model.
Style It: Moebi Knits 2020 Pattern Club all features “double” in some fashion. Beach Bum is no different. Double comes into play with the style options. Wear it as a beach cover up skirt or as a dress! Relying upon the beautiful stretch of brioche, one size should fit for both style options.
