Buy the Nomi Dress sewing pattern from Sew Over It. Knit dresses are great to keep you cosy in the colder months, and Nomi can be customised to create a go-to everyday dress or an elegant party dress that’s still super comfy to wear.

Choose between a simple crew neck or the twisted bodice option for a more glamorous look. Both necklines are finished with binding folded to the inside keeping everything nice and neat. When it comes to the length, you can make a simple gathered skirt that falls just below the knee, or add an extra tier to create a midi or maxi dress. Use a plain jersey to keep your Nomi Dress versatile; go for a stylish print for more impact; or opt for something special like a sparkly knit or a luxurious stretch velvet to create a party-ready outfit.
