Burda Young 7148

I am back! The cold weather was inhibiting me from creativity.........or is it just an excuse for me being lazy!? :)
 
Finished this UFO (unfinished object) after a month and a half of cooler weather here in the desert  hahaha!
 
Hope you enjoy!!!!!

Made version B
Fabric used: A Joann purchase, it's a Wuji boucle black and gold knit (too bad the gold specks aren't visible)
Love a deep pocket. The pocket shouldn't have the seam down the middle, but I forgot to cut the pattern on the fold :(, none the less, it's still a functional pocket.
The back!
You can drape it off one shoulder, or both!
Very warm dress.
Added an elastic waist band instead of the draw string the pattern called for.
Raglan sleeves!
If I make this pattern again, I will reduce the neck a bit, make a tighter circumference so that it doesn't drape as much.


 Overall pleased with the final outcome, now I need an excuse to wear it.............. Night out with the cousins :)
