Butterfly Dress or Vest

Introducing the exquisite Butterfly Dress, a delicate and lacy slip dress meticulously knitted using fine mohair yarn on larger needles (UK 5mm/US 8). This enchanting knitting pattern features a simple yet captivating lace stitch, comprising an easy 8-row repeat that makes it accessible for knitters of various skill levels. Adding to its charm, the dress is adorned with a beautiful frill, crafted from two layers of edging knitted lengthwise, giving it an elegant flair.

The body of the Butterfly Dress is artfully decorated with small glass beads, which are threaded onto the yarn before knitting and placed randomly throughout the dress to create a unique and eye-catching design. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, this pattern includes comprehensive written instructions alongside detailed charts, making it easy to follow along with the lace stitch and bead placement.

In addition to the stunning full-length version, the pattern also offers a versatile vest option that is shorter and features just one lovely frill. Both garments begin with the frill, from which knitters will pick up stitches along its edge to seamlessly transition into the body of the dress. This clever construction technique not only simplifies the knitting process but also enhances the overall fit.

The Butterfly Dress pattern is ideal for special occasions or casual wear, adding a touch of whimsy and sophistication to any wardrobe. To ensure a satisfying knitting experience, the pattern is complemented by high-quality images showcasing the intricate stitch details, allowing you to visualize your progress with every row.
