Inspiration
The delicate openwork design serves as my creative pen.

The result is a beautiful blend of functionality and design that showcases your knitting prowess.
Difficulty Level
This pattern is categorized as intermediate. It offers just the right challenge for knitters looking to enhance their skills while creating a unique piece for their summer collection.
What do you need to know?
Before diving into this project, you should be comfortable with the basics of knitting, including the knit and purl stitches, increasing and decreasing, and working in the round. The lacework is provided both in charted format and as detailed Row by Row instructions. Additionally, I’ve included a helpful video tutorial for those encountering charts for the first time. Plus, support videos are available for some intricate stitches, ensuring you have all the resources needed to succeed.
Construction Notes
The dress is constructed starting from the waist and knitted upwards, making it easier for you to customize the fit to your liking. The waistband is knitted in the round, extending up to the armhole for a smooth silhouette. Once you reach the armhole, you will bind off the back and continue working the front in a standard stockinette stitch for a clean finish. The straps are crafted in a beautiful lace pattern from the waistband to the back, enabling you to attach them to the front seamlessly as you knit. Once the top of the dress is completed, simply pick up the stitches for the skirt and knit in the round until you reach your desired length. This elegant lace dress is sure to become a staple of your summer wardrobe, and it makes for a fantastic gift or personal project.
With this summer lace dress pattern, you not only create a stunning garment but also master techniques that will enhance your knitting skills. Enjoy your crafting journey with this fresh and stylish pattern today!
