I've been wanting to make this top for ages, it's been in my favorites on verena.ru for a very long time. But I didn't want to do it in just any yarn, I wanted some luxury yarn...something I would simply love.
The chance came when I got to test this 100% Egyptian cotton yarn for Minerva Crafts. I totally love it!
I have to admit that I was hoping for a more ice blue color, "glacier" was greenish. It's still a gorgeous color and I really like it, but my desire for ice blue has not waned off...and if it continues gnarling at me I might dye my top.

This is a beautiful top. Is it available as download?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I don't know to be honest. I got it off the russian verena.ru that publishes some of the knitting and crochet patterns from the Burda group knit/crochet magazines every month https://verena.ru/vyazanie-kruchkom/top-s-krugloy-kruzhevnoy-koketkoy-4380/
DeleteThankyou. Found it. I save patterns from them too.
DeleteAmazing! I would love one, how long did it take you?
ReplyDeleteThanks Fanny! Well, I made many mistakes so it took a lot longer than it should have, but I think it can be done in 2-3 weeks of evening crochet 🙂
