Knitting dress for the Knitting show...

Way back in the mists of... July, I showed you the making-of Rosealare's dress.

The pattern is Butterick B5028, and the fabric is a cotton tana lawn, from Liberty, with the most adorable knitting print.

We've been plagued by postal strikes throughout the making of this dress. The mock-up went back and forth between us a couple of times, very slowly, and there's another postal strike from now until the day that Rosealare needs to wear the dress. It's going by Special Delivery in the morning, which would normally arrive the next day, but we'll just have to keep our fingers crossed that the parcel arrives in time.

The occasion to which Rosealare is going to wear the dress is the Knitting and Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace!

What better place to wear a knitting dress, than to a knitting show?
