Dress


This is a Dress that I made myself without a pattern.
In My Ravelry Group ( Knitting For Kids ).. One of the knitters posted a Challenge, so naturally I had to jump in and give it a whirl.... There is a Ralph Lauren Dress which is "similar" to this one that I made...and thats what the challenge was..To make that Dress..The Ralph L. one had little pockets on the skirt but I made pockets last night and put them on and took them off.. I think that the Cable Pattern I made is Busy enough for the skirt without pockets..I also put a button flap on the shoulder so its easier to get off and on...
The skirt is Bernart So Soft and the Blouse is Lion Brand Sock Yarn... Two different gauges I know but I did the Math and made it work :)
For those of you that are in Ravelry.. Come Join us at Knitting For Kids !!!
