Seashells & posies dress complete!
I can’t quite believe it – less than two weeks since I started, the Seashells & posies dress is finished!
I am SO happy with this dress! It contains many “firsts” for me. It’s the first time I’ve crocheted a lacy pattern.
It’s the first time I’ve crocheted a floral trim.
It’s the first time I’ve made buttonhole bands.
It’s the first time that I’ve made a complete garment, rather than a rug or a scarf!
It’s the first time that I’ve crocheted in a fine cotton yarn.
Now I am COMPLETELY addicted to crochet. Stella won’t fit into this until next summer, but I’m still pleased that I’ve made it now! I can look at it hanging in the cupboard and pat myself on the back. Thanks to Interweave Crochet for the pattern, and thanks to my parents for passing on the genes that help me to read patterns easily and follow instructions well!
WOW! It looks great! I wish I crocheted as well as you! I am not certain I have the patience for a project such as this! Can’t wait to see what else you do!
VERY cute! I love the colors! Every young lady is going to enjoy this! 🙂
YOU have done a fantastic job. It looks absolutely terrific.
It is gorgeous, it makes me thinking of shrinking just so I can fit it. 😉
I’m speechless. Absolutely beautiful work Lara. I know I can, I know I can, I know I can read a crochet pattern. They terrify my though.
It is beautiful. You did a fine job on all your “firsts”. 🙂
Its come up so well!!!!!
Love that lacy fan stitch!
