Description
The Ada top is one of my most loved patterns! It was inspired by groovy 70s fabric designs. Because the top is made using light cotton yarn, it can be worn all year round. Wear it as a sleeveless top in spring or summer, or as a sweater vest in cooler seasons.
The Ada top pattern is also available as a pattern bundle with the matching Ada skirt (10% off). Combined, the top and skirt make a very cute set which is perfect for summer festivals and cozy winter dates.
SIZE: XS-5XL (chest measurement: 65-170 cm). The length can be customized.
SKILL LEVEL: advanced beginner (you just need to know the basics). The pattern includes written instructions, photos of every step, charts, and graphics, so it’s very easy to follow!
LANGUAGE: English (I use US terminology)
YARN: you’ll need yarn weight 2 (Fine/Sport/5ply) or 3 (Light/DK/Light Worsted/8ply). I’ve used 9 balls of Katia Capri (50 g = 125 m/137 yds) and I usually wear size M.
CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS: you can choose between 3 different lengths: cropped, medium, or long.
The Ada top pattern uses the Mystical Lanterns motif originally designed by Janie Crow.
Enjoy crocheting!

Fell in love with this pattern, so original. I’ll try it with soft summer colors, even though the original colours are unique and so 70’s! But they don’t suit on me. .. The instructions are very clear. Congratulations for your idea, your website (well done) and your message of sustainability. Good luck! Alexandra from Italy 🙂

I’m just so in love with the top. The pattern is super easy to read and follow, and the design is perfect, I love the 70s vibes. I love how the design seems complex and then you see the smaller and simpler pieces, and it’s a joy to crochet. The color possibilities are so many there’s no going wrong with any. The size options are great, I will make some tops for friends for sure. 10/10 just perfect
