One day, I saw the sleeves of one of the models in Verena magazine No. 3 (autumn 2012), and fell in love! Yes, yes, exactly the sleeves, I was not mistaken... This model with wonderful sleeves, my ideological inspirer!
Arabic patterns, kimono sleeves and the charming contours of a Peruvian poncho. It attracts the eye and conquers the whole world for you.
Of course, in the form of a cropped sweater, the model also looks very good, I agree. But for some reason I immediately wanted to knit a tunic dress, so that I could simply wear it with tights and boots, and with jeans, trousers, and a skirt, in general, I wanted the thing to be universal, warm and cozy! All that's left is to choose the colors...
I found warm threads in my bins in the following shades - warm yellow (Alize Cashmira, 100% Virginia wool, 300 meters in 100 g, it took about 5 skeins) and dark chocolate (Yarn Art Pure Merino, 100% Virginia wool, 140 meters in 50 g, it took about 3 skeins). I also wanted the dress to be thick, so I chose knitting needles No. 2.5 (the manufacturer recommends knitting with knitting needles No. 4.5-5 mm). From the model presented in the magazine, I took only the jacquard pattern diagram; the rest was knitted, as they say, from my head. I really like what happened in the end... Admire it too :) 
I didn’t write down a description as I knitted, but I’ll describe a few main points... As you can see from the diagram below, the repeat of the jacquard pattern consists of 36 loops, I got 3 repeats in width (for size 36, or in our opinion, 42), that is together with the edge stitches I cast on 110 stitches. Since the jacquard still tightens the knitted fabric a little, and I wanted a dress with a straight silhouette, after the jacquard pattern was finished, I evenly decreased 10 loops, that is, the main yellow fabric was knitted on 100 loops. There are no armholes, just straight fabric, you can knit the neckline in any of your favorite ways. For the sleeves, 110 stitches were also cast on, but two repeats of the jacquard pattern were knitted upward, resulting in three-quarter length sleeves. After that, I evenly decreased 10 loops (it turned out to be 100 loops), and knitted several rows with the main yellow color (so that when sewing with the back and front, there would be one color). I knitted the neckline with regular garter stitch (all rows with knit stitches), and then finished the joint with a chain stitch (2 rows) with threads Brown.
Last year I knitted a snood from these brown threads, it went perfectly with the dress, in my opinion... 
And if you lift the jacquard part onto your hips (the fabric is dense, thanks to this it holds perfectly on the hips), you will get a nice sweater... In general, the model I got was not even two in one, but three in one - a dress-tunic-sweater!
