The Flower Square Long Sleeve is one of my unique designs, inspired by my love for vintage aesthetics and handcrafted details. Each flower square is carefully crocheted, bringing together delicate motifs with an airy, openwork sleeve for a timeless and elegant look. The lightweight mesh detail makes it perfect for layering over a bralette, bikini, or tank top, giving you endless styling possibilities. Whether I’m strolling along the beach, dancing at a festival, or simply embracing slow fashion in my everyday life, this top embodies the beauty of handmade craftsmanship. This piece is the reflection of my creative journey, designed to be as versatile and unique as the person wearing it.

Flower Square Long Sleeve Pattern Features:

  • Vintage Design: Features beautifully crafted flower squares that form the base of the top, giving it a delicate and feminine look.
  • Seamless Construction: The squares are assembled to shape the body, while the sleeves are worked directly onto the piece for a smooth, seamless finish.
  • Customizable Fit: The pattern provides guidance on adjusting the width and length, ensuring a perfect fit for every body type.
  • Airy & Lightweight: The open stitch work adds breathability, making it ideal for layering in different seasons.
  • Clear Instructions: Written in U.S. standard crochet terms, with detailed step-by-step guidance to help you through the process.
  • Versatile & Stylish: A great addition to any wardrobe, easily paired with jeans, skirts, or layered over a dress for a bohemian-inspired look.
  • Skill Level: Suitable for intermediate crocheters, with explanations, pictures and tips to guide you through the pattern.

SIZE ADJUSTMENTS:
The pattern includes suggestions for adjusting the size to create a smaller or larger version according to individual preferences.

GAUGE DESCRIPTION:
The gauge for this pattern is based on the Flower Square, which measures 16x16 cm when made with the recommended yarn. Achieving the correct gauge is essential to ensure your finished top matches the intended dimensions and fit. Keep in mind that the size of your square may vary depending on the yarn weight and hook size you choose, which can affect the overall size of your top. Be sure to measure as you go and adjust as needed to maintain consistency.

For this project I used around 500 meters of a yarn similar to The Pima Cotton yarn from We are the Knitters in the colour brown. Yarn Weight: Aran. Feel free to use the yarn of your choice, I also like to use the Soft Cotton from Hoooked and Rico Design Organic Cotton Aran.
