Crochet Pattern Summer Tunic “Rosenrot” – airy boho top with belt

Product description

Crochet your new favorite outfit – for summer and beyond!
This easy-to-make summer tunic “Rosenrot” is light, breezy, and full of style. A true feel-good piece with clever details like slanted shoulders, rounded edges, and a separate tie belt that lets you wear it in multiple ways.

What makes this tunic special:
• Quick & easy to crochet – perfect for relaxed crochet sessions
• Stylish & clever: shaped shoulders, curved corners, and a detachable belt for versatile styling
• Oversized & flattering – comfortable fit for many body types
• Wear it all year – layer with a long-sleeve top, blouse, or dress in cooler seasons
• Relaxing stitch pattern – mostly worked into chain spaces, so it's gentle on the eyes and flows effortlessly

You’d prefer a mini dress or longer version? Simply add rows and transform the tunic into a casual crochet dress.

Construction:
• Front and back panels are worked separately
• Seamed together at shoulders and lower sides
• The belt is crocheted separately and adjustable

Skills Required / What You'll Receive

The pattern includes written instructions, crochet chart, step-by-step photos, and a schematic drawing.

Required skills: slip stitch, chain stitch, single crochet, and double crochet.
The pattern also uses puff stitches – these are explained in detail with step-by-step photos and written instructions.

Size Information

Size: M – XL (2XL – 4XL)
This top has an oversized fit, which is why I combined 3 sizes into one range.

Materials List

  • Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 285 Lace, Color: 00581 Cabernet
    Yardage: 282 meters per 50 grams – 100% virgin wool
    or a yarn with a similar yardage
    Size M – XL = approx. 300 grams
    Size 2XL – 4XL = approx. 350 grams

Note on yarn quantity (if using the same yarn as I did):
For each size range, using 1 ball (50 g) less might just barely be enough — but I recommend sticking to the suggested amount, meaning 1 extra ball.
This gives you some flexibility to match the color transitions nicely, especially at the top left and right edges of the neckline.

  • Crochet hook 3.0 mm and 3.5 mm
  • Sewing needle

Super tolles kleines Ostergeschenk
Wollte meiner Oma eine kleine Osterfreude ins Krankenhaus bringen und bin auf dieses süße Huhn gestoßen. Habe es mit Drops Paris und Scheepjes Catona, Nadelstärke 4 und 2,5 gehäkelt. Meine Oma war sehr begeistert.

Schnelles Projekt
Schnelles Projekt für zwischendurch. Arbeitsdauer variiert, je nach dem wie lang man die Girlande machen möchte. Ideal um Wollreste zu verarbeiten. Die Girlande eignet sich auch gut als Geschenkband. Die Anleitung ist gut beschrieben und schön bebildert. Es gibt Textschrift und Häkelschrift. Also für jeden etwas dabei. Klare Weiterempfehlung!

  • Halo ich versuchs nochmal. Wenn ich Größe 42/44 habeas würdest du mir empfehlen die kleinere oder die größere Größe? Geht es auch mit 4 fädigen Bobbel zu häkeln?
  • Diese Tunika sieht traumhaft aus nur ist mein Problem ich habe Größe 42/44 und weiß nicht welche Größe ich nun neben sollte. Da ich nur 1,60 m bin sieht es evtl bei der größeren Größe aus wie ein Sack aber zu eng soll es ja auch nicht sein. Was meinst du? Und was kann ich alternativ für Wolle nehmen Bobbel?
  • 4 years ago
    Habe mich sofort in diese tunika verliebt. Habe auch die schon die Wolle bestellt.
    Aber ist die nadelstärke 3,5 wirklich passend? Auf der banderole der Wolle steht 2-3.
    Meine Maschen Probe ist auch etwas größer ausgefallen. Sollte ich besser nadelstärke 3 nehmen?
