Omschrijving

Julie Embrå wanted to create a dress for Fremstrikk as she thinks there are not enough stylish knitted dresses out there, and Julie loves wearing dresses. She also loves colors, so she chose a bright turquoise color when casting on for the dress. She wanted a feminine and wavy shape and tested various techniques to find the right fit and expression. “I’ve played around a bit, and my gut feeling tells me I’ve ended up with a good result.” The dress is named Laura, after Laura Dalgaard. “It was so nice to get to know her when we visited Romsdalen, so warm and kind. She made an impression on me. It felt natural to name the pattern after her as she is also a part of Fremstrikk.”
