Separate motifs with flowers in the center decorate the upper part of dress.

For making arm-holes and even edge of bottom, you’ll need triangle motifs, which are the half of the main motif. Makethemduetothescheme 2.
At first, make pattern design due to your measurements in natural size. In pic. 1 the details and motifs places on the dress are shown.
Make the sample of motifs and match it with the picture. For changing it to bigger or smaller size, change your crochet hook.
Make the motifs and connect them with one another, in the places marked with arrows. For this, make single crochet under the symmetry arch of 5 chain sts of the neighboring square instead of 3rd chain st of the arch.
Fasten the lower edge of the detail with 2 rows of single crochets, arm-holes and neck-hole – due to the scheme 3.
Make skirt due to the scheme 4 and sew it to the upper part of your dress. Make gussets widening by means of increasing the quantity of sts in every pattern repeat.
Beautiful dress. Now if only my figure would cooperate I be wearing this beauty.
How long would your average person take to finish this dress?
It depends on many factors, like the speed of your work, free time etc. As for me, I'd make this dress for ages. LOL
