It is hard to believe that the extra large measures 68" around. The picture does not look like the fit is THAT over sized. Medium is a 41" width. It looks fairly simple to make, all things considered. If I did this in a crisp summer white- how fresh this will look! Pair it with dark denim and a cami underneath.

What a feminine top. I love the coral shade selected to make this top. If you dare, when the weather turns from spring to summer, this can be a cover up on that trip to the local pool or to the beach.

For Spring or Summer you can not go wrong with this light and lacy crochet top. I am always a little afraid to complete a pattern with no pictures or videos attached but I took the time to read over this intermediate skill level pattern and I think I can complete this with what is provided. I only have to decide on what shade to select to welcome spring.

You know I've been looking at this style of top in the stores to add to my wardrobe. The store boughten ones are very, very pricey and then they are not made well!!! This one is so pretty. I can see layering it over a tank top during warmer seasons and a turtle neck long sleeve during the cooler seasons. It also has neckline and hemline detailing. Those both make for one really feminine top. I need to chose my color, get my yarn and get started on this one.

Spring is in the air, and I am loving all these light and airy tops I have been seeing. Looks like this is the color of the Spring this year. Beautiful top. An excellent choice to wear to class or any other casual event worn over a white tee or depending on the color you make the top it could be paired with a floral tee.

This top is so light and airy looking. This gives it such a delicate feminine look that is sure to flatter any sort of figure. I like the oppenness of the stitches and the lovely edging at the bottom of the top. I think I am going to work up a number of these.

hi i just started working on the right side on row 3 it say to end with sc in ch3 sp ,sc in sc turn but then row 4 doesn't work

Help! How do I finish the back from the underarm up? I have continued with the pattern to the shoulders, but not sure what to do with the neck in the back.

The pattern says to make front and back (make 2). That would only be to the neckline right? Does the back have the v like the front?

Do you think I could use the Caron Simply Soft yarn for this pattern?

Hi, I can't wait to get started I absolutely love this top! I need just a bit of help. Can anyone tell me how I can check the gauge? Do I have to do two reps of the five rows of the calado stich? any help will be greatly appreciated.

This is close enough to a pattern I've been looking for, pertaining to a top with a slight bit of a different pattern, and with scalloped edging. Can never quite find one though. So will try my hand at this one. Would love to see a hands-on video tutorial on this. Thank you! OH and after my attempt at this wonderful top, I will share an image of my finished work.
