A while ago one Raveler asked me to design an elegant crochet dress with interesting stitches that she could wear at her corporate job. And the new #artDECOcrochet dress might meet this description!
This textural crochet stitch was designed from scratch. The dress features edgy hemline and a geometric design that optically elongates your body. Moreover, you can create 4 types of neckline with just one crochet pattern (see all photos with these styles below):
1 – Dress with shoulders,
2 – V-neck in front and back,
3 – V-neck front with open back,
4 – V-neck with additional yoke.
Fun fact: I wore dress with shoulders at my wedding and got lots of compliments :).
Crochet this dress for sizes:
S-M to fit hips 90-100 cm = 35.5’’-39.5’’, bust 80-90 cm = 31.5’’-35.5’’;
M-L to fit hips 105-117 cm = 41.5’’-46’’, bust 96-106 cm = 38’’-42’’;
XL-2XL to fit hips 120-134 cm = 47’’-52.8’’’, bust 112-122 cm = 44’’-48’’;
3XL-4XL to fit hips 135-151 cm = 53’’-59.5’’, bust 128-138 cm = 50.5’’-54.5’’.
1 – Dress with shoulders:
2 – V-neck in front and back:
3 – V-neck front with open back:
4 – V-neck with additional yoke.
I would opt for V-neck if you crochet tops with these stitches and cover your shoulders if you create maxi dresses and wear them at work.
The PDF on 30 pages includes:
► row-by-row written instructions for sizes S-4XL (see yardage for each size below),
► links to youtube videos that show how to crochet every option;
► charts (stitch diagrams).
Yarn: 4 ply (UK) = Weight 1 = Fingering-weight = Superfine (USA), see yarn suggestions on Ravelry).
Hooks: 3.5 mm and 4 mm.
Gauge: 16 dc by 8.5 rows. I crochet/knit all my swatches separately, usually in the middle of each project, wash them, let them dry flat, and then measure my swatches without stretching the stitches.
