Hi everyone! I'm pleased to share that my design called "Peekaboo Plunge" is in the May 07 issue of Crochet! Magazine. You can see a preview of it on my blog here:

How cute! :yay

[Debbi-a1]

That is great you got it published. It looks like something a movie star would wear. I'm not brave enough to wear something like that... I do love the stitches and color though.

[Nutsaboutcrochet13]

I am definitely purchasing this Crochet! issue! I love it! :U

[Pumpkinmouse]

beautiful work as usual Drew :nworthy :nworthy :nworthy

[vcufashion419]

Amazing!!! I would totally wear that!! (Maybe even without the insert!! ;))

What is the skill level? I'm going to buy that magazine!!

[TX CrochetLover]

Great design! I am looking forward to May's issue and the pattern. Just so I can say, hey that guy is on the Ville and he's from Texas!

[benee16]

LOVE IT!!!!!
It looks beautiful, nicely designed.

[Bizzyboppers]

Drew- Wonderful design. My personal fave of the blog article was the comment about the insert being removeable after church....cuz that's THE best place to wear a dress like that! :rofl

[mimi_mia]

Wow...sexy!! Nice job on having it published!

[missamorphosis]

That's an awesome pattern. I personally wouldn't wear it since my body type wouldn't look good in it, but it's great you got it published. My subscription to Crochet! is about to end, but I think this issue is in one of the final couple I should get. Too bad my daughter isn't a girly girl.

[Empress Busy Bee]

Wow, good job Drew!

[thecrochetdude]

:fame Thanks everyone!! :fame

[dragonfli]

Awesome!!

[123mama]

I love it and I can see the young girls wearing it. Very good Drew.

I got my issue in the mail today and that pattern 'popped' out at me. I love it!! Awesome job, Drew!!! It's a beautiful pattern. My DD loves it also (she's 25) and wants me to make it for her. She will definitely wear it!

[KnicKnac]

WOW! I got my issue today and I passed by that pattern and went, WOW!

THAT WAS YOUR PATTERN!!! Too cool!!!

[AmyS]

You know, I wouldn't mind wearing that myself at the beach this summer, with a little bit of adaptation. I would definitely need to wear a certain undergarment with it, so I need to see if I can figure a way to add a back strap that would look good.

It looks so cool and flirty! I love it!!!

[tlisley]

Very nice Drew! Yep, I'm makin' those for all the church ladies I know!! ROFL!!

[birdlady1]

It goes to show you -- it takes a guy to design such a sexy pullover! Makes me wish I were 30 years younger and 25 pounds lighter! :blush Congratulations, Drew!

[ankey]

wow, fabulous job with the design! I may just have to buy this issue of Crochet! so I can make this for myself (without the white lacy insert ;) - of course that would drive my bf absolutely crazy...)!!

[mizduck]

Grrr, I'm for real gonna be stalking my mail lady! The dress is just too cute Drew. Need to whip one up for Sundays, definitely church attire! :wink :devil

[librarycat513]

I now have some terrific motivation to drop some poundage and get back into shape. I've so been drooling over that pattern today, and I'll probably have to give my magazine a raincoat so I don't ruin it when it comes in the mail.


Wonders if it's appropriate for a middle aged, boring, go no where woman to want a dress like that ...

[thecrochetdude]

:fame Thanks again everyone! :fame

I'm thinking of designing a wrap that matches the dress, and also a variation that would not make it backless.

Couldn't you picture it in white with a longer skirt and used as a wedding dress? Then the shorter version in color as the bridesmaid's dresses?

:bounce

[NoLooseEnds]

That would be awesome! I just got my issue today and you have really outdone yourself this time, my dear! I love it and would be all over a version with a back!!

[Crochet Fanatic]

Beautiful! Too bad I couldn't wear that. Can you design a Peek-A-Boo Mumu??:lol

[lhasaapsolady]

I've already received my copy of Crochet, and the dress is devine.

[ksknits]

Wow! I just love this dress. I'm at that age (late 40's) where I'm still young enough to love those sexy dresses, but unfortunately gravity and a few extra pounds that won't come off make it tough to wear something like this. I think a strapped version would work better for my age bracket. However, I'm running out at lunch today to see if I can find this magazine and buy it. Maybe if I stare at the pattern long enough while walking on the treadmill, the pounds will just melt away and I can pull this off.

That is what I was thinking above. Someone suggested goucho (sp?) pants. I showed the girls here at work, of course now I have to make a few for them.
Great job, very sexy. I love it and can't wait to go get a copy of the magazine.

Great designing as usual!
