The crocheted Taylor Swift dress suddenly appeared on all Facebook pages that deal with crocheting. She recently wore this dress while going out in London. (I also love the shoes 🤩)

The original dress is, of course, sold out everywhere, it was also not extremely expensive: € 116 – If you know that a ticket for a Taylor Swift concert already costs € 500, and people just stand in line for 3 hours to buy “swiftie merchandise” …Amazing!

The yarn

What I like most is seeing young girls and also mothers wearing the dress. Today I looked in my wool stash to make such a nice dress. I have the most stock of Royal wool from Zeeman, in actually all colors. I picked out a soft salmon pink, lilac, brown and white ball of yarn. Best part, the yarn only cost € 1,29 per ball of 200 Gram. This is Acrylic Yarn suitable for crochet hook 4.5 mm.

Since this is a cold and wet summer in the Netherlands, I will make the dress with long sleeves. But not as short as the original, I don’t have the nice toned legs to show off.

Let’s get started, I’m curious how long it will take me… I also recently crocheted a sleeveless top in the granny stitch. I worked on this for about a week.
