Pattern Description
A breezy, lightweight summer tee for children, designed with play and comfort in mind. The Skerries Children’s Summer Top features a relaxed dolman silhouette and a sideways construction that makes the most of drape and stitch definition.
Worked from sleeve to sleeve, this seamless top includes a lace feature panel at the sleeve cuff and down the body. It’s quick to make thanks to the use of simple stitches and minimal shaping — perfect for confident beginners or adventurous crocheters.
Make it in breathable organic blends for summer days, or in smooth cotton for easy care and wear.
Part of the Skerries Mother and Daughter set, a matching adult version is also available.
