Knit Happens ! ...

 For our knit class we had a project to make a garment , i decided to make a dress... I wanted fringing in it as I was in love with Mark Fast's spring/ summer 2010 collection at the time , Obviously I'm not as good as him but this is the dress I made... 

I made up my own patterns as well for this dress using punch cards  , we had to incorporate 3 different  jacquard designs  into the dress.

here it is in a verity of colors  ....

We Also got to do a Photo shoot which was amazing ... here is a few of the shots i got of my dress
