NeedleworkMonday WIP Challenge || WIP # 2 Completed

avatar

This dress is intended for a baby, small in size and I thought it would take less time to complete than the wide, long
skirt for adults, which I was able to finish in just a week and share here last Monday. I was so confident in my ability to complete this baby dress on time and be able to share the update of this WIP here. But I was mistaken.

I was caught up with some inevitable events that I can't avoid. First, my youngest son got sick, and after he recovered, I experienced a running nose, with a headache. So I can't focus my attention on crocheting. Second, my husband got sick also and that means I have to feed all the 8 adult love birds, 4 hand-feed baby love birds, 5 hamsters, 3 chickens with 3 chicks, 4 ducks, and a cat. Yes, we have a lot of pets and all of them have names. Plus I have to take care of my 2 kids. Good thing, that it was raining almost every day so there was no need to water the plants, especially the bonsai.

My eldest son was scheduled to take his 1st vaccine for covid-19 last Friday. He only experienced numbness in his left shoulder (where it was vaccinated).

So, this was how it looks like when I presented it to you last time, almost finished. But as I was about to work on it, I realized that it looks small and I'm afraid it may not fit a 1-year-old baby.

Back to my WIP, I decided to undo the lower portion and increase its width by increasing the number of double crochet on the underarm portion. I put some stitch markers for me to know where to put the shell stitch and divide them into equal parts. These markers were only given free whenever I ordered yarns from my favorite seller of yarns in Shopee an (online shop in the Philippines). And they are very useful.

I also changed the bottom design which is almost the same as the skirt I made last week so I can increase the measurement as I go along the way.

So here you will notice that after I made 4 layers of 2-layered-shell-stitch, #s 1-4 (I just given it a name because I don't know what you call it 😅 but hoping someone can enlighten me on this part), I made the 3-layered-shell stitch, #s 5-9 (hoping you understand what I mean😅) and on the #10 shell stitch, the 4th layer were made of picots and double crochet.

Next, to accentuate our little dress and give more emphasis to the edging (armhole and neck portion), we use a rust color of yarn (darker color) and make some tassels on both ends of the ties.

Then again, I undo the last part to change the yarn color into rust. I find it boring to use only 1 plain color. As you have noticed that I like to use different colors in one project. 🥰

So here's the outcome after finishing this wip. Finally, I'm done with the 2nd one. It means, two down, more to go.

But honestly, it seems that something is lacking in this dress. I can't specify what is it, but if you're given a chance to add something to this dress, what will it be? I would appreciate and respect any opinions and suggestions that you will make.

But overall, it looks quite good to me. Anyway, thank you for reaching 'this end.

Love lots,
@jonalyn2020

I admire you, having pets is like having children. Taking care of them all is a lot of work. I hope your husband gets better soon.

The dress looks beautiful. The color is very nice. It looks great on me. You just need to put it on the baby. 😁

Indeed, and it took almost of my time feeding them all. 😅 But it's worthy seeing them reproduce more.

Yes, the color is vibrant and would be best if a baby could wear it and model it for me. 🥰 Thank you for dropping by @creacioneslelys

Nothing missing at all! Its perfect. I could come straight from a magazine, so cute. I love the subtle color change for the neckline, I would not change anything.
By the way the stitch is called „pineapple“ here (I guess stitch names are not the same worldwide :-D)
And so nice you could get the dress done although you had so much non your plate with caring for your human and pet family. I hope you are all feeling better by now <3 <3

Ohhh thank you @neumannsalva. 😍 Now I'm convinced that nothing is missing.

"Pineapple" stitch, I see. Thank you for this, now I remember., 😅

I was really in a hurry last Monday to finish it. Because it was my goal. But on this 4th week, I doubt it if I will be able to finish one wip. 😅

Anyway, thanks for dropping by. It's an honor. 🥰 God bless you.

It looks perfect to me, if you had to add something to it, you could embroider mustard in the center of each shell.

I hope everyone at home is doing well

Thanks for sharing
