A loose and floaty ombre top in one size that can be easily adjusted to fit.

Featured on the front cover of Crochet Now Issue 98! Back issues should still be available to order online. The pattern will be available on its own from January.

Created with two triangular pieces for front and back; using one skein for each so the ombre effect flows seamlessly down the top. These are then joined at the shoulders and underarm to fit, before filling in the sides.

I used the beautifully soft Halo Colorama Halo O’Go; 2 balls in Orchid Frost with a 7mm hook.

Please see the photos for another version I made with a gradient mini skein set from Woolly Mama Yarns for a lighter weight and more colourful example.
