Some may think the skill level on this tunic should be rated Intermediate, but I have labeled it Advanced Beginner simply because one of my 16 year old pattern testers who made it though it was too easy to rate intermediate. It is fairly simple to make, but the results are wonderful! The long triple crochet is what makes this a fast and fun project. The band at the bottom and on the arms are worked in sc. An option would be to make the tunic longer and wear it as a dress. I love the Sinfonia 100% mercerized cotton yarn, which is available at Hobby Lobby or at Crafts Etc and Crochet Style Etc on the web. A good substitute yarn would be Patons Grace.
