Dress for my sister

Another Picture

I have made this dress for my sister. I have used a lace weight wool yarn.- about 560 meter per 100 grams, and crochet hook size 2.5mm, and 3mm.  This pattern is a Japaneses charted pattern, and the original pattern has no shrug with it. I have made this shrug using the same stitches of dress.

She didn't decide how she will wear it. She wanted to wear it with  a skinny jean  , and I suggested to wear it with high boot in another contrast color-maybe brown; I think she will need another blouse with more suit color. she agrees about another blouse , but not  about boot. If she decides, I will give you another picture.

Crochet Motif

Wow !!! Here is the complete motif. ☻ ☻  ☻  ☻ . what is your opinion???

Motif's workshop

From time to time , I like to try doing new  motif, stitch , and technique. I specially prefer the challenging one. It is a chance to learn something new. Lastly there is a motif really challenging -in my own opinion, so I gave it a lot of tries to do it, and finally I did it.

This motif is a center circle surrounded by eight circles, but not started in the center like most of the crochet motif. It starts by doing 4 circles, but not completely, then doing the other four circle from inside -like the above picture.


Here I have complete the four circles , and will be ready to make the center circle.

As this picture shows, I have started to join the center circle with the outer circles.


Here I almost have joined the center circle with all circles around.

Here I have started to go out, and started to complete the other outer four circles to finish the motif.

Measurements
I have made this one to suit my hand. The measurement of my hand is 17cm under the fingers , and 19cm under the thumb- this is the wider part of my hand.
