I’ve always dreamed of creating patterns that combine crochet and knitting—I just love how beautifully these two crafts complement each other. For a long time, I was intimidated by knitting terminology, but I finally took the first step… and I did it!

This pattern blends the simplest stitches from both worlds to create something truly special. Crochet brings in soft, airy lace details, while the knitted sections offer a bit more coverage and structure. It’s the perfect balance of texture, lightness, and comfort.

The pattern includes detailed photo instructions for crocheting the lace section, plus a short video tutorial on how to cast on, bind off, and knit the upper part of the top. So even if you’re new to mixing techniques, you’ll be able to follow along easily and make this top with confidence.

Whether you’re new to combining techniques or just love experimenting with texture, this top is a fun and satisfying project. I hope you enjoy making it as much as I did!
