7/20/24 Finally got yarn for this! Cast on at coffeeshop and dropped 2 sts so re-cast on and set it aside to work on mindless foot of a sock. Class was very focused for the full 3 hours so I was not in the mood to redo anything. Tomorrow….
7/21/24 hurried home from barre (was going to bag it but don’t want to look like a bag haha) and ran to coffeeshop. Got in a few rows on this and scrappy socks. Back to home to cook dinner.

This yarn is stunning! The silk gives it a beautiful sheen that will make this a little “party” dress.

Finished the top patterning at coffee with a friend! On to the east part:)
7/27 pic taken at coffeeshop… downtime after class and competition. Well deserved, I might add.
8/2/24
At coffeeshop and circular needle spilt! The wooden point at one side split about an inch from point and is catching on all the stitches that move past it. Guess I could knit the other direction(?!)So frustrating. And I have about 2 inches to go. New needles! Wont be buying those again! Unfortunately, I just got some for the sleeves today and they’re same brand… all the yarn shop had in size 1.

Hem complete! On to the sleeves!

One sleeve fini!!!
Finished today. Mowed the front but it was TOO humid so I quit and got cleaned up then finished this sweet dress. Put a round, pearl button on the back (from my grandma’s button box). She’s gonna love this!!
Thank you for the great design!!!
