Crochet Wedding Dress


So this week, I got an idea to crochet a wedding dress. I did some reseach on the net but all the styles and patterns I found were dated to the 60's and 70's. So like always I started to sketch some styles on paper and tried out some stitches and came up with a pattern. It's coming along great. I went to shop for yarn at the nearest yarn suppliers. I found some baby fine yarn in a eggshell color and started on my project. I bought about 20 skeins. You could never get too much, since there are color matching issues if you don't have enough yarn. So as a reminder to all make sure you always get enough or a few extra skeins just to be on the safe side.
I should be finished with the dress by next week. I am impatient, so if a project takes more than a week, I get tired of it and starts to drive me nuts trying to finish it.
Will post a pic of the dress soon.
Happy knitting and crochet,
God bless to all.

How wonderful! Would you be willing to share more pictures and perhaps your pattern? I'm very interested in doing this myself or having it be something that my grandmother and I do together.
