I’ve had my eye on this pattern for several months. I’m only about a third of the way through the front panel, but I love how it’s working up. The stitch pattern is easy to memorize and work on while I watch TV. I am so excited to wear this tee when I finish!

I love this, super easy and quick! I wear it all the time.

Not sure why but I ended up with a completely different number of pattern repeats when it was time to decrease. I ended up looking at the picture and just ad libbing and it worked out ok. It wasn’t written clearly about the number of actual stitches in one pattern so maybe this could be edited into the pattern for future references.

I wound up buying a few patterns from this store and love them all. I ordered the same yarn the designer used and am already working on one of the top patterns. I will definitely come back to by more patterns from this store once I work through the project stash I impulsively bought on a sleepless night. The patterns are more than reasonably priced and well written.

I love this pattern! I’ve already gotten so many compliments on it. The stitch is easy to do, the key at top of pattern is super helpful. I’m not new to crocheting simple projects but new to using patterns to make larger items. I was a little intimidated with the layout of the pattern but it’s really very simple once you understand the stitch guide. I believe it’s a 3 weight, but I used a 4 because I really wanted the soft yarn I found. Normally I would be a medium, but because of the higher weight the stitch is bigger so I went with the size small on pattern and it worked perfectly. I also decided to make up a custom back using the same type of stitches but veered from pattern after back panel 1-30 rows. I like an open space for my tattoo. But everything else was easily understood and will definitely buy from this ship again.

Such a great pattern… Excellent easy to follow directions. I have made 3 of these using the recommended yarn which does feel very comfortable! I tried cooboo but found it more difficult to crochet with and not as comfortable. Stick with Truboo! This is a really great pattern to work while watch tv!

This was a pretty easy pattern to follow. It was also “mindless” in that for a lot of it, it was just pattern repeats so you can just power through while watching tv (which is a compliment!). Overall: I liked it.

Anxious to crochet a wearable item. Only knitted them. The pattern looked easy to read…just need to start 🙂
Krissy –
If you are reading this, just go ahead and make the purchase. You won’t regret it. I started this and had to rip out my initial go on most of the front panel (I was rusty and had to get the hang of the pattern) but that was ok! I wore it today and had compliments from my coworkers & my daughter + her 14 yr old friends. I am starting another pattern straight away-such a great way to have a project that helps with anxiety and has really neat results.

I just finished making this sweater, and it is beautiful. Once I figured out the pattern repeat, it was a super fast and easy make. I made my armholes a little bit bigger than the suggested size, but that was a super easy alteration.

Another great pattern! Well-written and easy to follow. Would definitely make this one again, in multiple colors! Added sleeves “in pattern”, as well as length, for personal preference.

Lovely pattern, and works up quickly. Go up at least one size if, like me, you’ve a tendency to crochet more tightly.

PDF file was immediately available after purchase. I look forward to this project.

I am probably an advanced beginner crocheter, but these directions were extremely hard to follow for me. I quit because I had no idea what it was asking me to do. Maybe they make sense to more advanced crocheters, but I was disheartened and discouraged to continue.

I’m so excited to get these patterns from this designer! I loved so many of them I went ahead and bought several to begin with! I haven’t gotten to start any of these patterns yet but they seem extremely well written and easy to follow!!!

Roxane –
This was a very quick pattern to work up. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow.
Verified Buyer –
I started this project almost immediately upon purchase. The directions are very clear and I’m so happy it includes plus sizes! I’m not using the suggested yarn, but a dk light worsted I bought from another etsy seller and it’s been coming together beautifully. And fast! Once I picked up the flow of the pattern, I am determined to complete it 🤩
ETA: if you use a tapered hook, go up a hook size for the starting chains or chain loosely. I initially found my starting chain a little too tight with my tapered 4mm, so I used a 4.5 mm to give it a little more stretch 🙂

The pattern is beautiful, the crocheting instructions are very easy to follow, but the dimensions are not accurate. I chose a medium size and I usually wear a small. My finished top came out much smaller than the picture, more of a crop top with a very narrow neck opening.

Fantastic pattern easy to follow
S –
Pattern was very easy to follow. Love the finished top. Not her fault, next rime I will pay more attention to the size. This first one was way too big for me especially in the length. I ended up cinching one side. Also added more of a border around the neck. I’ll be making again though so no worries! Pattern very easy to adjust or just go down a size. I made mine with Lion Brand Coboo color Admiral. Will try different yarn next time as this yarn seems to snag on everything.

This pattern was easy to follow and turned out great! I added longer sleeves by doing sc around the arm hole then continuing the pattern for a few rows until they reached my desired length, otherwise I followed the pattern to the letter and it fits really nicely. Used a DK weight superwash wool.

This was a very easy pattern to read and adjust where needed. It is a very attractive and easy to make summer top. I will be making it again with the Truboo yarn as recommended. I tried a different yarn that I had and now wish I hadn’t. Truboo would be so much better (and perfect) for this pattern.
