with winter approaching i really want to knit myself a really nice dressing gown, but i don't want anything too wooly & heavy as i want to be able to wear it all year round.
does anyone know of any good patterns i could use, or have suggestions from thier own projects, as i'm beginning to think i'd prefer to make my own pattern......

Re: dressing gown

Mon, October 23, 2006 - 11:39 AMAs for making your own pattern, you could modify a cardigan to lengthen it and then add a belt (like this knitty.com/ISSUEfall05/...osephine.html ). Some big EZ After-thought pockets would be a nice addition.
