This is Pickles' reversible frock. A while back, they hosted an creativity contest with this pattern, and I eagerly cast on this frock with a combination of mohair and baby merino. The pattern creates a reversible frock, which allows the wearer to choose to show off the fancy mohair version or the ever-changing painted version. 
However, I never got to participate in the contest, as I didn't finish on time. This mummy business sure takes a lot of time ;)
I did the yoke in simple ribbing with a reversed purl, which I always find creates a nice twisted finish. The hot pink mohair makes a nice touch to the inside (or outside) of the reversible dress. I love Pickles' idea of patent knitting with two different colours!
