DIY: Knitted Wedding Dress

Filed in archive Bridal Style , DIY , Something Different , Wedding Dress on August 1, 2008

I forgot I'd seen a post about knitted wedding dresses at NIBS a while back. It caught my eye because I have the Spring/Summer 2008 issue of vogue Knitting that featured patterns that knitting brides could use to make their own wedding gowns (segment: The White Way). Think this sounds too quaint?

If you knit, like I do (there, I admit it!), you know that there's not too much "quaintness" about today's knitters or their knitting. This artistic and crafty endeavor has flourished due to the Internet, and knitters being able to connect via blogs, message boards, forums and the like. The creativity is simply astounding.

DIY: Knitted Wedding Dress


This is just one of several choices the magazine gave knitting brides-to-be who want a dress that involves some real work and dedication. Does DIY appeal to you? Do you knit? If so, this is one way to have a dress that no one will stop talking about.

To tie in with my eco-friendly wedding options this week, you can make this gorgeous dress in any number of organic yarns.

Here's another post I loved about crafting your own wedding gown.
