Debut Wedding Dress

Make this Taylor Swift inspired dress for your wedding or other special occasion! Pattern Notes: This is moreso a guide to help you crochet your own similar dress. It is so extremely custom to your body, that I don’t want to call it a crochet pattern. Please use this as a guide for creating your version. Due to how this is only a guide, experienced level is recommended. The written instructions included are the steps that I did to make one that fit me and my corset. There are instructions included for measuring yourself (or whoever will be wearing the dress). Measure the corset ON your body. I cannot stress this enough. The corset will stretch to you so if you don’t measure with it on, then your crochet fabric will be way too small. Start with the bust cups, move onto the rest of the bodice, sew it to the corset, then add the skirt. Materials: -Fingering weight yarn - Sample only used about 350 yards -"Fluffy" yarn of your choosing. I used Metallico Fine from Hobbii which is a fingering/sport weight yarn that has a heavy halo - Sample used about 2600 yards -Optional Beaded thread yarn. I used yarn from Kwirks by Kay - Sample used about 350 yards. -A premade corset -A crinoline petticoat -Sewing pins -Tapestry needle -Stitch Markers -Crochet hooks in a variety of sizes. I used E/3.5mm for the bodice and then used G, I, K, N hooks for the skirt, but you can use whatever is comfortable for you and gives the look you want -Fabric glue -Optional Sparkly Trim
