Notes

woohoo its done!
this pattern was exactly what the doctor ordered…miles of stockinette and endless noro stripes…
-hugs to the designer for such a neato/delightfully well written pattern…

-i had 100 grams of noro scraps so i used that for the top half of the dress..i purchased a full skein on etsy and used that for the bottom half..i have 4 grams left over after the neckline edging..

my only mods- i knit the waist section a bit longer after the decreases were finished and i did a 3 needle bind off on the reverse side for the straps instead of kitchner..cause i abhor it…came out smashing i think

ps- i shall be wearing this at rhinebeck this year (fingers crossed!)

blocked measurements- 27” bust/25” waist/41.5” total length
