The nina top/dress is a recreation of various milkmaid tops. I took elements from multiple designs (piping, scallops, frills, button front, etc) and basically mashed them up to create my favorite version. Rather than having 1 strict design, the nina top/dress has multiple options for you to choose from so you can customize yours to make the version you love ૮꒰ ˊᗜˋ ꒱ა You can purchase this pattern at a lower price ($14) on my website: https://ko-fi.com/s/b7e2d50723 The pattern will include: written instructions, photo instructions (step-by-step) & links to YouTube videos that may be helpful while you work on your nina. You can also always contact me on Instagram by.redbean or email at byredbean [!at] gmail.com if you have any further questions. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A PATTERN PDF; NOT A PHYSICAL ITEM. Notes: - Language: English - Terminology: US - Level of difficulty: advanced crocheters and up! This is a highly detailed/complicated design that should only be attempted after you are confident in crocheting made-to-measure tops! - Skills: basic crochet stitches, increasing/decreasing, sewing (for buttons) - Pattern is made-to-measure to ensure that the garment will fit you how you'd like. Therefore, there are no exact stitch or row counts in the pattern. Materials: - Recommended yarn: fingering (size 1) or sport (size 2) weight yarn. For reference: - In the first sample (beige top), I used 292g fingering weight wool blend yarn from Lotus Yarns. - In the second sample (white top), I used 284g sport weight yarn from Drops (drops safran). - Please see tester photos to estimate how much yarn you will need. - Recommended hook size: 3mm or any hook that matches the yarn weight/size you're using. - Tape measure, scissors, yarn needle & stitch markers. - Buttons (I used 6-8 buttons that are 10mm in diameter).
