# Sage Green Bohemian Lace Dress Free Crochet Pattern
Boho lace in soft sage — dreamy and romantic! This dress has an openwork lace bodice that shows just a hint of skin, flowing into a soft skirt that moves beautifully. It’s the dress I wear to outdoor gatherings, garden parties, and anywhere I want to feel effortlessly beautiful.
The lace is a simple openwork repeat — chains and double crochets that create a lacy mesh. The skirt is worked in a looser gauge for drape. Bohemian, beautiful, and surprisingly wearable.

The Pattern
Lace Bodice
Ch 110.

Rows 2–12 (lace): DC in the first DC, *Ch 2, skip the Ch-2 space, DC in the next 2 DC,* repeat across, Ch 3, turn.

Rounds 14–16: Continue the lace pattern in the round, joining each round.
Flowing Skirt
Round 17 (increase): Ch 3, work 2 DC in each DC and 2 DC in each Ch-2 space around, join. (Approximately double the stitches.)
Rounds 18–30: Ch 3, DC in each stitch around, join.
Round 31: Ch 1, SC in each stitch around, join. Fasten off.
Work 1 round of SC around each armhole and the neck. Weave in all ends. Wear over a slip for modesty.
Sophie’s Tips
- The lace bodice is sheer by design — a nude or white slip underneath is essential.
- Block the lace gently to open up the pattern and even out the stitches.
- The skirt can be lengthened easily — just add more DC rounds before the final edge.
Free as a bird — boho beauty in every stitch!
