March is here and the sun is warmly shining - spring is in the air. Is there a better way to celebrate the beginning of the spring than with a brand new dress? I don't think so. For the first time this year I wore a dress (my new dress) and it felt so springy and light - even though I think we still have more snow than in last few years altogether.
I had fun time planning this dress but the actual knitting was a bit tedious. In the end it all worked out great, the dress fits like a dream, it goes as a tunic with jeans as well and the pockets are just right. My grey phase sure continues, but this light grey is perfect for the spring. (At least in my mind.)
Pattern: my own
Yarn: DROPS Alpaca
Needles: 3 mm
I'm all happy. And oh so ready for you spring!
i love your designs, this one turned out great!

ReplyDeleteTää on aivan mielettömän ihana. Tuleeko tähän ohje? Tuleehan, jooko? Tahdon nimittäin ehdottomasti tämmöisen. ö.ö
ReplyDeleteI love the pockets!
ReplyDeleteit looks great. i have often debated with myself about making a knit dress, but i talk myself out of it everytime. i just think that it would take forever and drive me crazy about like knitting an afghan. argh!
ReplyDeletethis is really wonderful. i LOVE it! reminds me of something from Toast catalog, only nicer.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteVau, aivan upea mekko! Löysin blogisi hiljattain ja olen ihan myyty, en voi kuin ihailla tyylikkäitä töitäsi.
ReplyDeleteYou're patterns inspire me to knit! I hope you post this pattern! Also, I wonder how it would look in a cotton blend of some kind? Or some other warm-weather yarn (where I live it gets warm in the summer and this would be so great to cover up my pale arms without being tooooo hot!) haha
ReplyDeleteWaaw that is such a fantasic dress. And size 3 mm! And the soft Alpaca!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I just read that you would write pattern down - I would be happy to pay for it!!!
I adore this dress. I will buy the pattern if you are going to sell it. Straight away.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty - a dress I would actually wear! If you need test knitters, I would definitely be interested. Otherwise, I eagerly await the pattern...
ReplyDeleteEnsi kertaa eksyin blogiisi... Kertakaikkisen upea mekko ja kauniita neulomuksia muutenkin.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, and the colour is perfect. I love the pockets too.
ReplyDeletei-h-a-n-a! mäkin jään odottamaan ohjetta!
ReplyDeleteOh, so pretty!
ReplyDeleteWoo-dresses are the best kind of clothes to wear when i´ts winter/spring outside!
Aivan superihana!!! Mulla on tämäntyyppisiä kangasmekkoja, ja olisi upeaa saada sellainen myös neulottuna. Taskut on parhautta, etenkin mekoissa. :)
ReplyDeletewow, gorgeous! it looks perfect on you.
ReplyDeleteI just found you and love your designs. This dress is so pretty, the little button detail on the back is lovely. I just bought your Modern Garden pattern and also love the Honey Cardigan, maybe that's next. WOW to all your knits!
ReplyDeletegrey, my favorite color! This is just beautiful and so cozy looking too !
ReplyDeletebeautiful, love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is the best piece you ever showed us. I would definitely buy the pattern. I really hope, you are going to release it.
