The Lotus Smock is a super fast and easy project using crochet
hairpin lace. If the beauty of Lotus doesn't entice you to try
hairpin lace, perhaps the speed of this project will.
This try-on-as-you-go project can be completed in a weekend
for the camisole-length or in a week for the knee-grazing dress.
Lotus is created by joining hairpin lace strips of different
lengths into a classic feather and fan pattern. The strips vary
in length to hug the curves of the female form; each join is
subtly different although the overall pattern of the dress
remains the same.
Key to this design is the forgiving fit: not only is hairpin
fabric stretchy, but also the texture of the join pattern helps
Lotus obscure any bulges that you might like kept under wraps.
Skill Level Uses repetitive stitch patterns, simple shaping
and simple finishing.
