Finally finished the dress....

This has been the hardest thing I've made thus far.
Taking it out 3x and knitting it again.
It's not perfect, but my god am I proud.

Thank you for your support through this.

That dress has to be a work of art.

@turbineman40 you think?
I tried my hardest to do the best I could...
I didn't have a pattern to follow.
Just used the skills and techniques I've learned along the way

@Mellowgirl Very impressive knitting technique. By taking it apart three times makes the dress fit even better. I can appreciate your dedication to make the dress fit you. Are you going to install a lining in the dress? Will the knitting hold its shape without a lining?

@turbineman40 I'm not entirely sure...
I hope It will hold shape. The neck line and the hem are tight, that way it shouldn't budge too much.
The rest is dependent upon care and weight gain/loss I guess

@Mellowgirl When you wash the dress , I wonder if it will change shape as the stitches adjust in tension. Will you hand wash it?

@turbineman40 I feel like if I continue to respond to you it will diminish the high in on from completing something I've never done before
