Very Easy Loom Knit Sweater Dress DIY

A couple of months ago I got this idea in my head that I could make a sweater with my knitting looms. I couldn't find a tutorial of the way I pictured it in my head but I had to try.

It's really the simplest thing. I knit all these parts and I sewed them together. I was afraid the sweater would look a little wonky or would be uncomfortable in the sleeve area. I picked a fuzzy yarn that is really soft and flexible once knit.
What I didn't see coming was that I was knitting a dress, not a sweater :) I made it quite a bit too long but it's very confortable and feels great.


I bought this basket to store all my yarn. I love it :s 10€ at the BHV store.

Different parts

Counting rounds

Knitting sleeve




I added one triangle on each side so the sweater would be loose and not hug my Buddha belly.
It looks a little weird because it is so long but I'm wearing it on a daily basis when I'm home. It is very warm. And I was surprised to see it didn't unravel during the first wash.

It took me days, but I made it!!!
