ABOUT THE PATTERN AND DESIGN
Worked top-down and with minimal seaming, the Yolanda Top is easy to try on as you crochet, ensuring a customizable fit in both the body and sleeve lengths. The boat neckline and diamond filet stitch create a feminine cut, while the fingering weight yarn creates a light and airy fabric with lots of drape.
