Knitted Lace Dress-Finished

Oh boy, but I have been looking forward to this post!! This is a Drops Design pattern. It was knit on size 3.25mm Inox needles, the kind with the flexible black cord, not the more rigid clear cord. I used Schoeller Baby Micro to knit it with, in color 05. I honestly cannot remember if I started with 7, 8 or 9 balls, but I have 4 balls left. How’s that for helpful? Yeah, I know.

Here are close up thumbs of the bodice and skirt. Click to enlarge. I used the macro function, so you’ll practically be able to feel the texture of the yarn.

wow! You did such a nice job. It looks professionally done like on a loom.

I am going to have to take a look at what else you can do. Maybe I will put an order in if you don’t mind.

Thanks so much for posting this! I’m working on a lace skirt and was starting to get discouraged by the lack of knitted lace dresses and skirts I’ve seen (or not seen). My mind is still boggled about the math involved with getting the right fit. Thanks again!
