Modeling my new Wild Rose crochet dress design in the morning mountains! :)

I am a huge fan of textured fashion and have been incorporating it more and more into my designs. Sometimes I stray away from texture to avoid complicating the mathematics in my patterns. Math has never been a strong subject for me... so becoming a crochet designer has been a challenging, humbling, frustrating, but incredibly rewarding experience. :)

I loved creating my upcoming Wild Rose dress pattern because it has tons of texture, but was not too challenging to write. After making the first couple roses, I could slip into my crochet meditation and not worry about the math. Bliss! There's a vintage romantic vibe that I love about this design. It's a little unusual but lots of fun to wear.

The dress took about a week to create and was inspired by all the flowers in summer bloom.

We went back to Craggy Gardens to get these shots. This time we took the trail from the picnic area. It was completely deserted at sunrise and felt like a dream. I wish a photo could fully capture how epic it was!

The dress pattern will be hitting my shop by the end of the week! :) In the meantime, Check out my last blog post for info on my previous design and some pinnacle pictures at Craggy.
