Rumi dress
Rumi Dress is a beautifully designed multicolored ribbing dress, perfect for knitters looking to create a stunning garment. Named after my little sister Rumi, who has just tied the knot, this dress symbolizes her name's meaning: “Stay beautiful.” I received the joyous news of her wedding while crafting this dress, making it a heartfelt dedication to her. The Rumi Dress is crafted using a delightful blend of six colors, but feel free to unleash your creativity with any multicolored yarn of your choice.
This lovely dress is worked from the top-down, allowing you to easily adjust the length to make it perfect for any occasion. Whether you want a stylish cocktail dress or a more casual look, the Rumi Dress can be customized to fit your needs. I am thrilled to share this classic and elegant pattern with fellow knitters who also aspire to stay beautiful!
