"The past week I've been wearing my Peachy Bikini Cover Top out in the garden and have realised that although I designed it as a bikini dress, it works perfectly over a simple strap top and shorts too! I've only ever worn bikini covers when I've been on holiday but now I'm determined to find other ways to style them, I think it could work with jeans and heels too? The stitch pattern uses a mixture of filet crochet technique (not tricky I promise!), slip stitch details and long stitches for the neckline which are really easy to master - if you can work a regular UK treble/US double then long stitches are no problem at all, I'll talk you through it too."

"The Dogwood Flower Top is really made to be styled in multiple different ways. Obviously it is a very summery and warm-weather article, but depending on the outfit it is a part of it can really take on several different looks. I made mine a good length for wearing with high waisted skirts or bottoms, and as you can see the results really range from classy to very bohemian. The almost free-form way that the flowers are joined also makes it just a little bit abstract."

Hello everyone! Filet crochet is a very easy technique once you get the hang of it. It's quite similar to cross stitch embroidery. You can choose any pixel art shape and turn it into a crochet chart with a few simple steps. I've explained all of this to the best of my ability in a video posted on my YouTube channel (see below). I decided to make a step-by-step tutorial for this technique after most of the comment I received on one of my earlier designs, my RoseRelief Shawl, were questions about how to follow the chart or how to do filet crochet. Now, I finally have the means to explain it using this post. This top is very easy to make once you grasp the basics of the filet crochet technique. It's made up of four pieces: the back and front, joined by two stripes that make up the sides. I am absolutely pleased with the way this top turned out, and how very nice and unique it looks. I hope you try it out yourselves. Stay safe and healthy!
