Beautiful Bamboo

At Purl, we received a shipment from Habu Textiles, a Japanese company that makes some of the most unique yarns that I've ever seen. In the shipment were some large hanks of beautiful white bamboo. Bamboo has a lovely drape and sheen and feels silky smooth against your skin.  In fact, a lot of customers at Purl look at it and touch it and think that it is silk.  It's not hairy at all, and since it's a plant fiber, it's much cooler to wear.  Perfect for summer knitting. --Leah

Where can I get this pattern????? I am currently in a play at my university and my director wants me to knit a nightdress, so I gave her a few links including this one, and she's set on me making this. Can you help me?
