Renard is a lacy silk dress full of drape and elegance. She can be worn out with a slip underneath, or can be saved for special times at home when you want to feel like a goddess.

The Renard Silk Dress is an investment project, but the result is a dreamy, silky garment for at home or wearing out on the town. The waistband of this dress is worked flat; you will knit two strips and graft them together. The bodice and skirt are both picked up from the waistband and lacy increases create a draping full skirt. This construction makes fit modification simpler for folks who may need a different size waistband, upper bodice, or skirt.

Knit in Sweet Georgia SeaSilk Lace, this pattern is suitable for any lace weight or light fingering weight yarn with silk or plant fiber content.
