I made this dress for my new great-niece. It's probably hard to see the pattern but there is a picot edging along the bottom, neck and armhole openings. It was all worked in a cotton blend. The bottom of the dress has a tulip pattern and the body of the dress is eyelet. It was fairly easy except I had a problem about 2 inches from the top. There was a row of eyelet that was completely off from the rest of the pattern! I don't know what happened-I followed the pattern, but I had the problem on the front and back. Of course, I noticed it 4 days before I needed it for the shower on April 15th. I only frogged the front panel but I still worked down to the wire. I was up until 1:15 a.m. Saturday night, then got back up at 6 a.m. to finish. I had bought 2 sun dresses-as backup!-and wrapped everything, made up a gift basket, bows, got dressed and was ready to leave for the shower at 11:15 Sunday morning. I work well under pressure!
I joined a scrap sock KAL and made these from 4 different yarns. They are all superwash wools. I think the pattern worked out pretty good even though I wasn't too sure I was going to like them when I first picked out
my yarn. Since I have knit about 36+ pairs over the past 2 years, I do have a lot of orphan yarn to use up so I'll pobabkly makje a few more pair.
