Old blue lacy top
This is something I did a few years ago. I was feeling like musing a little bit with various crochet stitches, and I wanted a somwhat "decent" top to wear in the warmer season. I also happen to wear it when the weather is less sunny, over a light sweater.
The yarn
I think it was cotton. I used something like 6 balls of it, it was a Bouton d’or, yarn, I think I remember the name of it went like “tweed" or something similar. A 3mm crochet hook, as usual, my favourite.
The design
It's just a tube with two straps and a few more rows in the front.
The stitches
From top to bottom : Pineapple,doule crochet, spider, diamonds, waves, spider again, pineapple and a kind of bobbly-cluster for the edging.
More pictures, if you're in a mood
Well, I must admit I had never noticed how daring it was untill I took and uploaded those pictures...
Maybe because I did it when I was around twenty and felt it was ok... Now that I've seen how actually see-through it is, I don't know if I will be able to wear it without anything underneath again
