Flitter is a dress that combines the two major creative influences in my life, my grandmother who taught me how to knit and my mother who taught me how to sew. The dress is knit from the waist up in one piece, then a skirt made from 8 flower-shaped panels is attached to the top. Add in a little elastic, and presto, you have a dress your girl will love to twirl in.
