This top is lacy and drapes so beautifully over a tank! The cotton and silk Taiyo Sock yarn delivers the color story beautifully while creating great texture. The side to side construction of the tunic body is crocheted from the sleeve to the center back to the sleeve on one piece, leaving room for the center inset. If you are creative with crochet, you could make several different motif centers and use the same body pattern for a wardrobe of tunics!
This makes a great swimsuit cover-up!

I used a palm wood hook G for the body and D for the granny’s. These hooks are bigger than traditional hooks and I find the G is more like an H and the D more like an F in traditional hooks. Do your gauge swatch to insure a good fit.
