The dress is worked in rnds beg at the neckline.
Using double pointed needles, cast on 80 [92] sts. Place beg of rnd marker and join ready to work in the round placing the sts on each of the 4 needles as such: 1st and 3rd needle: 13 [17] sts, 2nd and 4th needle 27 [29] sts. 
Rnd 1: k all sts.
Rnd 2: p all sts.
Rnd 3: 1st needle: k1, k1tbl, k9 [13], k1tbl, k1, 2nd needle: k 27 [29], 3rd needle: k1, k1tbl, k9 [13], k1tbl, k1, 4th needle: k 27 [29]
Rnd 4 (with incs): 1st needle:k1, yo, k1tbl, yo, 9 [13] sts in lace patt, yo, k1tbl, yo, k1, 2nd needle:k 27 [29], 3rd needle:k1, yo, k1tbl, yo, 9 [13] in lace patt, yo, k1tbl, yo, k1, 4th needle:k 27 [29] = 88 [100] sts.
Cont. these inc. in every 2nd rnd 16 [19] times more. = 216 [252] sts. After the 5th and then after every 4th inc. integrate the new sts into the lace patt. When too many sts are on the 1st and 3rd needles place a few sts onto the 2nd and 4th needles or move all sts to a circular needle.
After the last inc. in the 36th [42nd] rnd = 216 [252] sts work next rnd: k all sts.
Next rnd: for the sleeves purl over the 43 [53] sts in lace pattern plus 1 k st before and after the lace pattern (= p45 [55], k63 [71], p45 [55], k63 [71]
Next rnd: cast off 45 [55] loosely, k63 [71], cast off 45 [55] loosely, k63 [71]
Next rnd: cast on 7 [9] and mark the 1st and 7th [9th] st, k63 [71], cast on 7 [9] and mark the 1st and 7th [9th] st, k63 [71] = 140 [160] sts
Cont. over all sts in stockinette st.
For the side shaping in every foll 6th rnd M1tbl before the 1st and after the 7th [9th] st at each marker 17 [18] times = 208 [232] sts.
Cont. until rnd 103 [109] (36 [39]cm from armhole opening) then work 14 rnds in lace patt. working only the 4 sts of the patt repeat. 
Next rnd: p all sts.
Next rnd: cast off all sts loosely k-wise.
 

Tip to cast off loosely: after every 4th cast off st make one ch st (pull the yarn through the cast off st) then cont. with cast off.
