Simplicity 3678
Sewing / Posted on August 6th, 2010
I had a sneaking suspicion that I’d like this dress judging by over 50 positive comments on the pattern at PR and the fact that it was deemed one of the best patterns of 2008.
The pattern totally merits all the hype. You put the dress on and you feel (a) Comfortable; (b) Carefree; and (c) Cute–three critical “C’s”.
I really knew I had hit on something good when my husband repeatedly complimented me on my new dress. If there’s a person on the planet who pays less attention to clothing than he does, I’d be shocked.
I’m already planning another one of these!

Agreed on the three C’s! It looks great and thanks for posting about this, I’ve been looking for knit dress patterns! There seems to be so few that has interesting details — but I love this surplice cut and the pocket variation! Definitely snapping it up at the next Simplicity sale.

Such a cute dress and picture! I knew you were a fabulous knitter…I had no idea you were the uber talented seamstress!

Wow!! Love this knit – where did you get it ?? (I’m sure it won’t be available anymore, that is always my luck) I love your blog, BTW, and think you have great style. Plus, you have a doppelganger who is one of my best buds – the resemblance is uncanny.
Keep on sewing!
