This is the Gina top.
Made having flower motifs as the central point, making the front expressive and playful and from the sides it continues to the back following a simple pattern to give stability to the rest of the piece and do not steal the emphasis from the front panel.
I envisioned the back a little bit different where the intertwining, closing ties would be more pronounced but Eva is so slim the back panels tied closed to each other, so this is another point I will have to consider when I make the pattern for this.
The top is already given, but I do plan to publish the pattern for this one. Sadly, my life does not let me work as planned, so I am afraid if I can make it at all until fall comes.
Once again you have created such a beautiful crochet halter top for your daughter. She looks stunning in it. She has such a nice collection of tops to wear for summer. Love that scooter. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Julie! This is not made for my daugher - it's part of my summer collection. The Vespa was used to add that vintage feel to the photoshoot :)
DeleteMaking patterns for clothing is sooooo challenging. There are so many things one has to consider. Good luck with writing the pattern for this pretty top!
ReplyDeleteThank you Marjan! I think I have everything down, but testing and sizing will take lots of time because I cannot dedicate myself completely to it considering all the other things I do .
DeleteMy favorite color! It's beautiful and your daughter definitely wears it well.
ReplyDeleteThank you Tammy! Among my favourites too!
