About the pattern ----------------- This is an intermediate crochet pattern for a short sleeved summer top with a lacy yoke in the shape of feathers. It is worked top-down from the neckline, with the sleeves and body separated after the yoke is complete. The sleeves and body are also worked top-down, seamlessly. The round yoke shape is customized for each size, with a different number of pattern repeats, for the best fit. You can finish the feathers with a flat tip or a pointy tip. A separate chart includes the instructions for the pointy tip. The pattern is written out for all 12 sizes and includes ease of 5-10 cm at the upper bust. You will choose a size based on the finished garment measurements and follow only the instructions for that size. The text is available in US and UK terms. It is formatted in 2 columns for easy reading. Black text on white background, with colors to highlight differences between sizes. If you need a full black text or a low vision version, let me know and I will create it. Skill level ----------- Intermediate: you will work mainly with double crochet stitches and chains. Clusters are used for the lace in the yoke. Sizes and measurements ---------------------- The pattern comes with 12 fully written sizes. You can customize the length of the body and the sleeves, as well as the fit of the bust, by choosing a larger or smaller cup. You can also create waist and hip shaping if desired, using the same instructions and well-placed stitch markers. Check out the measurement tables to find your size.
