Tunic for the summer or pregnancy

I finally finished my long-time project!

It took me about half a year to complete it, because of the beautiful pattern.

The backside.

I think I will wear this with a belt.

And when my tummy is slowly growing to the spring/summer, I will have a perfect dress even for hot days. 

:)

Side view with the belt

It was easy to knit, but the pattern will take you a long time!!!

The top.

Nice pattern in the yarn "Safran" from Drops.

Here is the free pattern on www.garnstudio.com:

red dress growing

So far so good :)

The dress is getting shape slowly.

Looks like a skirt till now.

And I recognized that the edges are rolling.

I definitely have to iron this later!

Here the pattern again.

I use Drops Karisma for this work.

It is a very soft, woolly yarn.

Slippery for an iron-needle, but it works.

how to put the sleeves on the dress

The interesting part was easier then I thought!

Sleeves!

So I made the short sleeve at a separate knitting round-needle first. 

And I ended 8 stitches for the sleeve at both sides on the dress.

Here you can see the different parts together.

And then you just have to knit the sleeves stitches to the dress and after this you continue with the stitches of the dress normally.

After knitting and continuing the patter the sleeve slowly gets in nice shape.

Both sleeves at the dress.

I really hope my arms will fit in there ;)

It´ll be a very nice dress in the end!

IT WILL BE FINISHED SOON!!!!

60 cm of the dress

So I am knitting and knitting and got 60 cm ready.

When I am at 66 cm the arm-work begins....

A very beautiful dress coming to be finished soon, in a very beautiful color!

I love this!

Here a sneak peak for a part of the pattern.

The diagram M.2 is for the edge.

slowly... growing so slowly...

So I am still on it!

I am knitting and knitting, increasing and increasing...

3 times and the increasing is over, then I am going again to getting more!

Soon the hard part is coming, the arms and the head-way!

It could already be a nice skirt!

But I am continuing for my final dress!

Stay tuned for new photos soon!
