The Begonia Top created as part of the Mamma Mia Collection is a very simple yet elegant looking textured top which can be paired with pretty much any kind of clothing. The highlight of this top is the simplicity of the overall construction of the top and the nuances of the texture filet creates with basic extended double crochet stitches.

With a very basic construction, this top makes for a perfect summer ensemble when paired with a saree/skirt/palazzo/shorts/jeans or trousers. As it is made to measure, this can be made for any sizes right from Children to Adults across all age groups.

Skill level: Beginner

Sizing:
This pattern is made in the round fashion(top-down/bottom-up) and is made-to-measure, which means, you should measure around the body and based on the specific measurements, the top will be constructed. This makes the pattern easily scalable for all other sizes. The top is fitted hence has no ease.

Construction: The Top is worked in the round and then the straps are attached at 4 sides for the shoulders.
