The Feather & Scale Halter Top uses fine variegated cotton blend yarn to create an eye-catching gradient of crocodile stitch scales on the outer top, with a built-in inner cup lining for coverage and support. The cross-back ties keep the weight off of the neck so you can comfortably dance & groove that feathery fringe into motion!

With the dramatic triangle shaping to accent the body’s curves, this halter is both figure flattering and fun to wear - and the pattern is written for FIVE sizes, X-Small - X-Large (corresponding to AA/A - DD cup sizes ).

The pattern is well stocked with all of the details on the techniques needed to create this unique piece, including extensive instructions on creating the crocodile stitch used for the main part of the halter - as well as precise step-by-step written instructions that correspond with nearly 100 tutorial photos! Additional video resources of me demonstrating the crocodile stitch used here are also linked to in the pattern.
