1950s Wiggle Sheath Dress Knitting Pattern – 5 Sizes

Price range: £3.99 through £5.99

This late-1950s knitting pattern is for a fitted wiggle sheath dress, with five sizes covering finished bust measurements from 32 to 40 inches.

The bodice and sleeves are knitted flat on two needles, while the skirt is worked in the round on a circular needle. This gives the skirt a smooth finish without side seams and creates the close, narrow silhouette typical of the period.

Worked mainly in stocking stitch, the design is relatively straightforward to knit despite the impressive finished result, making it a good choice if you’d like to try a full knitted dress.

Finished bust measurements are 32, 34, 36, 38 and 40 inches.

The stated tension is 7 stitches and 9 rows to one inch, measured over stocking stitch.
