A versatile Tunisian crochet garment that’s eye-catching and very adaptable for different occasions and outfits. It could equally be worn at the beach, in the office or at a party and although designed with summer in mind, it could be perfect for other seasons as a layering garment.

The simple stitch and block shaping make this a great first garment project with easy seaming and blocking and a subtle, interesting texture. The Tunisian twisted simple stitch is much less prone to curling than the standard simple stitch so it’s ideal for this garment with its interesting neckline and hemline.

Finished Measurements.
Bust: 36 (39, 43, 46, 50) (54, 56, 57, 62)” / 91 (99, 109, 117, 127) (137, 142, 145, 157) cm

Intended Ease: 0-4” (0-8 cm). Note that the amount of ease varies, with most ease for smaller sizes and least for larger sizes. The bias setting means that the extra width of ease in the smaller sizes will pull the top longer on the figure and the top will also stretch wider on larger sizes to compensate for the length variation. See pattern notes for full explanation.

Pattern includes many suggestions for customisation to suit the wearer’s style and shape preferences.
