Materials Needed: * Yarn: 1900-2600 yards of fingering weight cotton for that perfect drape and breathability. * Hook: 2.75-3.5 mm to reach gauge, depending on your tension.

Designer’s Note: I created this pattern because I wanted a crochet top that didn't feel "heavy." The open-mesh texture keeps it light as air, while the solid blocks provide just enough structure. It’s the comfort of a sweatshirt with the elegance of handmade lace. Click 'Add to Cart' to start your new favorite project today!
