Description
This colorful beach coverup is an easy and quick project. Consisting of sc, dc, tc, shell stitches, and tc-3-together stitch, it is a good project to learn several classic crochet stitch types.

In addition, the pattern is designed to be two lengths: a short version (1 whirl) and a long version (2 whirls). The short version has 1 full color gradient left to right (pictures)(i.e. blue to yellow), and the long version has two color gradients that are mirror images of each other (i.e. blue to yellow, then yellow to blue, moving left to right).

The pattern has a stitch diagram, and a written pattern. In addition, there are instructions for blocking, and instructions and and diagrams for assembly of the pieces into the coverup.

Note: A second pattern file is also included with this cover-up pattern which has directions for a girls beach dress in about size 7 (dimensions below)
