This trendy, mesh-style vest adds a stylish, airy touch to any outfit and pairs effortlessly with your favorite summer skirts or pants.

The ELSA LACE TOP is worked in two panels (front and back) crocheted sideways. The neckline and shoulder slope are formed through increases and decreases. Once both panels are completed, the shoulders are joined with a tapestry needle seam and the sides are closed with a row of crochet. Finally, a cute ribbing is added to the neckline and armholes for a beautiful, polished finish.

Designed with a comfortable positive ease of about 15–18 cm, this oversized openwork top is quick to crochet. No advanced or specific skills are required, as every technique and stitch used is thoroughly explained.
