SHEER PANEL DRESS

Noro Spring/Summer 2013 #2

Design by Lori Steinberg

Be red-carpet ready in Steinberg’s coquettish shift dress. Featuring a slip stitch worked in two balls of the same Noro Ayatori colorway, #5, the front and back skirt panels are joined with sheer strips of Debbie Bliss Angel, shaped to create a flounce. The slip-stitch bodice band is flanked by sheer panels at the midriff and shoulders. Ribbed waist and bodice bands in Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino and crocheted edgings in Noro Ayatori add structure.
