I started the Ruffle Edge Sheath dress found in the Vogue Knitting 2006 Spring/Summer magazine at the end of June. I'm hoping to have it completed a bit before my birthday on August 28th to wear to my birthday dinner. I have completed the back piece, and have started the front piece this past week. I will take pics of my progress and post.
I had a very hard time tracking down the ribbon used in the pattern, and when I did find it, it was a bit too pricey for me, considering it was $6.50 a yard and I would have had to purchase 5 yards minimum (the yarn had already cost me $65). I went with a double faced silk satin ribbon from MJ Trimming. I ended up buying 4 colors so that I could place them next to the project and choose the color that looks best with it.
More later....
Happy Knitting!
