I weaved the belt through. (my one difference)
Loved this image of the knitting and crochet.
It was originally worn, as a long straight down dress with a frilly knee length edge. (This was my 1st lesson in weight as with knitting it keeps on growing even when you have ended the project)
But thought it needed to be funked up (modernised) and this just shows that you can see things completely different, to suit your needs.
It looked more classic and now more 80's and I have changed nothing, I just weaved the belt through instead of just a wrap around.
This can take the weight more, so the top part bags over and the bottom to me looks more like a tu tu.(All good fun)
