I love the dress, and I loved the teacher. I learned so much.

I've had this class in my watchlist for ages and I'm glad I finally watched it. I really didn't have any interest in this particular pattern but I was hoping to learn at least one new thing and I did! The yarn gathering was something I'd not seen before and I hope to put it to use in other patterns. I do wish she'd shown the dress on an actual human being. Great class!

I don't think the neck edge needs notches cut out, only snips will do. And only use the tip of the scissors when cutting toward a seam, not open scissors like she demonstrates.
