I always loved culture of native people. It is always vibrant, diverse and has so many options to take from and use in your modern projects. About Native Americans I have heard in my childhood - my grandma brought me a book about Sat-Okh, who claimed to be Polish-Shawnee and to have grown up in Canada among First Nations people. Probably, this free people inspired me and continue to inspire me with beading, fringe and easy to wear clothing…

This crochet pattern is made in a tutorial style and designed for making a triangle, top-down fringe top with holes and texture. The pattern has over 100 photos and 13 pages with explanations.

Currently, S and M size are available (see the chest measurements). I am working hard to add L size shortly. M has been crocheted and S - calculated.

This halter hollow out top requires from 70 to 100g of fingering yarn and lot of patience when attaching the fringe at it’s bottom. The top has crisscross ties at back.
