50% off to celebrate the Mixxty Lace Top pattern release! Nov 7 - 10 only

This top is a quick make - mostly HDC in a round. I was inspired by super bulky yarn tops and sweaters that I’ve seen in fashion media. I love the juxtaposition of a super bulky yarn and sleeveless silhouette. This top can be worn on its own or layered with a long sleeve tee underneath. It can also be made as a crop top or waist length.

GARMENT CONSTRUCTION:
This top is made in sections.

Section 1 is worked from top to bottom (the armpit to the bottom of the top). It is crocheted in a round which achieves a beautiful fabric and wave.

Section 2 is worked from the bust up to the shoulder, working the front side and then the backside.

Section 3 includes the collar and armhole borders.
