SWAP Dress Print 1 Front - Style Arc Alexi - modified
This dress started life as a Style Arc Alexi top that I lengthened to an A line - but based on feedback from RiverGum at Stitchers Guild, I reconsidered the balance of the turtleneck with a dress length garment. Changed up the pattern incorporating a bateau neckline from an old Vogue pattern for wovens... Slimmed down and shortened the Alexi sleeve, and took off about 2 inches total circumference graduating down around the waistline.
Hems (sleeve and garment) just basted it, but I think I like them at this length.
Fabric is peach melba rayon knit from Sawyer Brook, purchased eons ago. Hug Snug on hem, Mettler metrosene thread, jersey needle size 10.
