This week we chose the free crochet top pattern distributed by Nako. This nice crop top is an easy and free crochet pattern on rainbow lines. An adorable top for a casual fringed during those hot summer days.
This Pattern was inspired by the rainbow lines. It would make a cute summer top and you can make it as large as you want (instructions in the pattern).
This is a beginners level pattern, although you need to have some previous experience on crocheting and oldest see patterns to make it. Includes photos to make it easier to you make it.
This pattern is a free pattern published in Nako Magazine.
