We love crochet cover ups .. and we don’t always use them as cover ups either :) Most often, we are wearing them as large comfortable oversized mesh tops that drape and fall easily over shorts! True…the Summer Beach Crochet Cover Up Top works well as something to drop over your cute swim suit, but a lot of the time we are just wearing it like a lacy tee. With its relaxed, netted design and modern oversized fit, The Summer Beach Crochet Cover Up Top has started this season as one of our sunny favorites.

The Summer Beach Crochet Cover Up Top is an absolute beginner top! It works up incredibly fast thanks to the open, mesh-like stitch pattern. If you have been following our blog for a while you probably know that we LOVE crocheting into spaces.

The Summer Beach Crochet Cover Up Top is designed to be a loose, modern and oversized mesh top.  It uses a beautiful stitch that gives the top stunning drape. We used a self striping yarn that gives random pops of color without a lot of weaving in, however this would look amazing in a solid color too.

The neckline is completely customizable and you can adjust it to sit off the shoulder or keep it tighter and stay comfortably on top. The natural scalloped edge forms the neckline for a relaxed, effortless finish.

The Summer Beach Crochet Cover Up Top is a simple and free crochet pattern that’s beginner friendly and fully customizable to any size. Designed as a made to measure project, it uses mostly double crochet stitches and chains, making it perfect for those new to crochet or anyone looking for a relaxing, straightforward make.
