Ruffled Dress



OK, first things first...fun site for giving your photo that old-time look. I need to finish a quilt soon because I think a quilt would be particularly fun. Try this converter out yourself!

Now, the ruffled dress was knitted using Dalegarn Svale yarn purchased at Cultured Purls in Issaquah. The pattern is called "ruffled dress" from the book Baby Knits by Lois Daykin. This pattern and I didn't get along so well; which is interesting since the other pattern I made from this book was very clear.

The confusion came in lining up all the ruffles in the ruffle panel. It was a fine line between poorly written - knitter error - pattern error. However, the final product was very satisfying and it came together nicely...

  1. Love, love, love it! Especially the front 3 "tiered" effect in the middle. Super cool/cute. And it has to be satsifying knowing you conquered it. Jerk pattern writers.
