Summer Fashion 2017

Dear users, dear designers,
now in summer, of course you also need a suitable summer wardrobe. With Crazypatterns, you can make a lot of it yourself by hand if you’d like. I’m sure you’ll have fun with it. How about a poncho for the evening or a tunic pattern that you can make not just once, but several times, so all your favorite colors are covered?
Get started right away.

@Authors,
2–3 patterns per designer are enough. Don’t forget the link and image.
Don’t forget to include the difficulty level, what’s special about the pattern, the technique, and the material.

This beautiful, airy tunic is quick and easy to crochet thanks to its simple cut.

Whether worn casually with jeans, elegantly with a skirt, or simply at the beach—this shirt/tunic is always an eye-catcher. If you lengthen it, it turns into a great dress or mini-dress.

The pattern is written for sizes 36/38, 40/42, and 44/46. However, other sizes are no problem thanks to the simple cut—the pattern also explains how to do that.

--> Here you can get the pattern for all sizes



This airy summer top is perfect for the beach, or for your next evening outfit if you pair it with a matching camisole and light-colored 3/4-length pants. If you extend the main pattern by several pattern repeats, you can easily turn it into a wonderful beach dress.

Thanks to two snap fasteners, you can wear this top in two different ways. One option is the classic straps, which can be unfastened at the back and then tied together at the neck, turning it into a halter top.

A total of four different patterns are used here. The patterns are fully charted and are also provided again in written form, so you can decide whether you want to work from the crochet chart or the text.
