Looking for a knit knot dress pattern
fluff Intermediate MI USA Member since 4/4/04 Posts: 70	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 11/7/12 5:01 PM I really like the look of this dress: Butterick 5416 But, it seems a little fussy with the princess seams and the lining. Does anyone know of a pattern like this (where the knot is low, not the twist-front dress), preferably for knits, without the princess seams? Thank you!

I looked at the drawing and saw what looks like a princess seam on the right, but I guess that element is necessary to go into the knot. I like the dress you showed me, although I would prefer a side knot. Thank you!

Also, I find it really cool that you are in New Zealand and I'm here in Michigan in the US; Patternreview really brings sewists together! Many thanks! -- Edited on 11/8/12 7:56 AM --
