Modification Monday: Anais Dress

(Doesn't that just look like the dress inspires happiness?!)

Original Pattern: Anais and Ribbed Mini Dress

Knitter Extraordinaire:Monica (Rav id, blog)

Mods: Took the top of Anais, eliminated the sleeves, and meshed it with the waist and skirt portion of the Ribbed mini dress.

What Makes This Awesome: Let's face it- Anais is a pretty awesome design all by itself. It looks very wearable, and when I checked out the ravelry FOs, they were all really great. but as a dress- wowza!! that's impact. the dress is stunning, and it looks amazing on her. This is a great mash up of two very different patterns, harmoniously blended into a truly gorgeous dress. Her project page is here.
