Crochet Top Reveal!!

Morning to you all, thank you for taking the trouble to drop by!

 I am really excited by this post , do you remember by green top I was making?


Well the pattern worked like a dream, the bamboo cotton was lovely and silky to work with (if a little splitty)
but for once I have crocheted something I actually might wear!!

 

The pattern was from King Cole Ltd made in Bamboo Cotton (50% cotton, 50% Bamboo) and took 4 x 100g balls.  The pattern was easy to follow and the shaping minimal. All in all a very good pattern.

Ta Dah!!


Oh dear, I suppose you would like to see me in it ............... I hate having my piccie taken!  Here goes...........

 

Ok ... one with my head in!


Hope you like it! 

Speak soon xx

  2. Wow it's gorgeous - and so are you !!! It looks lovely on you and the colour is terrific for summer.
    I think you'll get lots of wear out of it providing it washes well.
    I'd make a few more in different colours if I were you.
    Cheers
