Alexandra

This top - down circular yoke garment can be made in lot of yarn weights using a J(6mm) hook. It can be made in pure linen which makes it perfect for summer layering, but swap that out to lace weight mohair and your winter glamour is assured. The intricate pattern in the yoke is repetitive and addictive, and the body of the garment is a simple V stitch which is TV watching crochet. This is the grown-up’s version of the “Alex dress” designed in 1999 The V st can be either Htr (HDC)V st or tr V st the choice is up to you!
