DROPS Design :

Dear Mrs Stapleford, you will cast off 2 stitches at the beginning of every row - both from the right side and from the wrong side until piece measures 30 cm - make sure you have cast off the same number of stitches on each side. Happy knitting!

Love to avail of your free patterns, the sizes confuse me completely. You say a dress for a 9/10 yr old is 134/140cm. Is this the chest size?. if so is that not large.

DROPS Design :

Dear Teresa Lee, the 134/140 cm refers to the child's height - you will find all measurements for each size, taken flat from side to side in the measurement chart at the bottom of the pattern - read more about sizing here. Happy knitting!
