I made a dress…

… and I liked it.

I’ve always avoided bulky yarn before so I thought I’d give it a try anyway. And while the needles were hellish (10 mm…) I made a new friend in the Drops Eskimo yarn, which, despite limited yardage (I’ve never before used up five skeins in one day) is really soft and lovely.

(It’s the #22 Cabled Dress from Vogue Knitting (Fall ‘08) and I just happened to stumble upon it on Ravelry, realized I owned a copy of the issue, and decided to make it. In TWO DAYS. (And yes, I did do other things besides knit those two days.)

    Crazy quick!

    You chose a good time to finish it - Stockholm is freezing today! And I can totally see that dress with matching legwarmers… ;-)
