After finishing my own DKNY knit dress, my mom requested that I make her a knit dress or two. I ordered some fabric on emmaonesock.com that she liked, and then I had her pick some patterns from my stash that she liked. Now I'm just trying to decide on the final combination I will make. Here are the fabrics with the patterns:

Does the Cynthia Rowley pattern work for knits? I personally like the fabric on the right with the middle pattern. The fabric on the left is gorgeous but the pattern reminds me of your DKNY dress in a different colour scheme. Your mom is really lucky!
ReplyDeleteYes, the Cynthia Rowley does work with knits, and I'd probably do the version without cutouts but with sleeves. I see what you mean about the left fabric, it is quite a bit like my DKNY dress! Wouldn't want to be twinkies! HA!
