I could not stop with this idea because it looks so modern and suitable for every day wear [not a fancy kind of dress that I have no place to wear :)]. So, here is the new trapezoid dress! ?
It is fitted through the bust before falling gracefully into a flattering A-line silhouette below the hips. It can be dressed up or down effortlessly – make it a transeasonal staple, layering over a turtleneck during colder months. Attention: wide boat neckline emphasizes the bustline, thus this design looks best on women with bust cups A, B and C.
► More details about this crochet project:
It is worked in two separate and identical trapezoid pieces – back and front. Each piece will be worked on a bias starting from the bottom left corner in the hemline and ending at upper right corner, then shoulder and side seams are sewn. The main pattern consists of a 10-row repeat, with 33 percent of all rows being the usual crochet GRANNY Stitch Pattern that works up fast. The edging is quite simple too: video.
