Ready for some warm-weather makes? The Skyway Top is the perfect transitional garment – great to layer over shirts and dresses as a vest, or on its own in the summer.

Skyway is a fun crochet top that is both easy to make and easy to adjust and also offers a lot of fun and learning along the way: beginning with working in two directions, smooth decreases and increases along the neckline and armholes and finishing up with neat edgings and straps.

The focal point is a beautiful wide cable at the front, formed by two smaller cables with opposite twists, it is gracefully complemented by a delicate eyelet row on either side. The remainder of the top features straightforward single crochet ribbing, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable crocheting experience.

Description

I loved this pattern! I did want to make it a bit longer, but that made the math complicated, so I followed the pattern exactly instead. I’m still really happy with how it looks, especially those cables!

Description

Met gauge and followed pattern for the size large. I did add an extra 12 stitches for length. If I would’ve had enough yarn then I would’ve liked to add another 12 stitches but overall I’m happy with the result!
