I'd like to list this dress that I've had since the 70s. It has no tags that might help and having looked at a zillion crochet and knit pattern images, the closest I have come is this Clove Knot Knit picture, (mine on left....clove knit on the right)For those who know, do you think that's right or is it booble crochet?Thanks in advance.

I'd call it knit. For one thing, my guess is it's machine-made, as opposed to handmade. Crochet has not been mechanized, while knitting has. Some garment retailers and brand names continue to refer to any open-work knit as "crochet" because either(1) they don't know any better, or (2) their customers don't know any better and they don't want to lose buyers.
