This is the Summer Breeze Kids Top! This cute as a button fingerweight child size top is perfect for that special skein or two of hand-dyed yarn. I needed a quick kids top for my little one for the summer, and this skein jumped off my shelf and onto my hook! And it’s a super simple top to make – perfect for a quick and easy weekend project!

For this kids top I wanted something my Maggie could wear all summer and be comfortable. So often I see little kids in crop top tanks and that just doesn’t sit well with me. So instead I created a simple short sleeved top. It’s a full length top, but because it flares out at the base, it’ll keep your little one nice and cool! Also, the pattern is written for sizes 6m (16”) up to 14/16 (34”), so it’s perfect for every child!

You will need a 3.5mm hook and 250-950 yards (depending on size) of any fingerweight yarn. I used the color Funky Monkey in Addy Socks Fingerweight 4-ply 75/25 superwas merino / nylon (463 yards per 100g) dyed by Brediculous Yarns (www.brediculousyarns.com). You will need a basic understanding of the usual crochet stitches, slip stitch, single crochet, and double crochet.

As always you are welcome to reach out if you have any questions about the pattern. Once the pattern is purchased, you may sell your finished items, as long as you give credit to me as the designer.
