Crochet Pattern Tunic “Arielle” – Raglan Top Down

Whether at the beach over a bikini or swimsuit, or in everyday life with jeans, a skirt, or shorts – this unique top is versatile and always a real eye-catcher.

Thanks to its loose fit around the belly, the tunic is also ideal during pregnancy: it grows with you, offers lots of freedom of movement, and always looks stylish.

Even on cooler days you can wear it effortlessly – simply put it on over a long-sleeve shirt or blouse and it instantly becomes fall- and winter-ready. With “Arielle” you’ll have a true all-round piece that gives you endless styling possibilities.

The pattern includes a very detailed step-by-step description (14 pages of text), a crochet chart, and a schematic with measurements.

Required skills: slip stitch, chain, double crochet and treble.

The tunic is quick and easy to make – also suitable for beginners with some crochet experience.
