Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I had seen this type of knit material before but always thought it a bit pricey. So imagine my surprise when the lady in my local shop had this on sale for £ 2,— p/m ! Not knowing what I might do with it, but not wanting to run out of material I bought 3 metres of it, just to be on the safe side :-)
So two days ago I finally got round to making a dress. It is a pattern I’ve used before, only changed the collar into a kind of turtle neck. I am in love with it !

Hey this is great, no need to say that I’m a fan myself of Missoni knits. The turtle neck solution is better than a waterfall neck, I’m not happy with my Missoni dress because of the waterfall neck. I was wearing it a few weeks before for a dinner in a restaurant, and I had a feeling of wearing a “drip pan” (lol) In any fact the Missoni knits are so great! And you made a bargain. Great job!

I love this! I’ve seen a variation on this fabric, but I think the one you found is prettier…and you made good use of it. Nicely done.

I love it too. You look so good in it as the fabric colours are perfect for you.
