4. Continue pattern - Continue the umbrella pattern for 2 more rows.

6. Switch to pattern - Switch back to the umbrella pattern and knit the next row.
7. Repeat pattern - Repeat the umbrella pattern for the body of the frock until you have the desired length.
8. Add a border - Switch to garter stitch and knit the next row. Then, knit every row until you have 1 inch of garter stitch border.
