The fit is not the greatest and the fabric has a mind of it's own especially after a full day of wear but...I LOVE IT!
This dress is warm, comfortable, easy to make, has not a single closure and is sure to frequent the Fall/Winter rotation this Season.
These two medium weight sweater knits are remnants that have been in Virginia's stash since I inherited it. I knew that I wanted to pair them up somehow and this dress, which is View A allowed me to experiment with the color pattern.
I would highly recommend this dress with modifications if you use a heavier knit. It's designed to be "close-fitting through the bust". You might consider going smaller at the top and adjusting for a sway back if you've got the curves. I chose this fabric at all costs and have no regrets.
This is a great dress pattern that will serve as a great addition to the wardrobe. I've gotten my money's worth as I have nearly completed the second of only two views, View B. The fabric is a much lighter knit and the fit is quite different.
Until next time...PEACE AND BLESSINGS!!!
