Inspired by the beauty and airiness of an open meadow, each element of this piece has been carefully planned to create an intricate project featuring a wide variety of crochet techniques. Boasting a series of joined lace motifs around the neck, the Ainsley Top is perfect for all your summertime adventures. Ainsley is Scottish for “one’s own meadow” and perhaps this top can be your own “meadow” too.

This clever top begins with a series of lace motifs joined and placed around the neck. Later, side and underarm panels are added. The skirt is worked in a lovely lace pattern. The sleeves edges are finished with a lovely edging which mimics the skirt. The neckline is finished with scallops.
