This dress was knit for the New Year's Eve wedding of a dear young friend.
The ceremony took place out of doors in the snow by a cabin in the woods so the knit was very fitting. It was worked in an off white superwash wool from Italy, very soft but held it's shape.
I worked the hem and cuffs in a lace and added a lace band around the hips for further accent. The skirt was worked straight with godets in the side seams to give it a little more flare.
Though the low V neckline front and back did nothing for warmth it enhanced the bride's youthful beauty.
I was very happy to design and knit this garment.
