It’s going to be three years since I started updating my old patterns to bring them in line with my current standards, and I have now come to realize that some of them will probably never be updated, either because I have gifted the samples and cannot make nice photos, or I simply don’t have enough time, etc.

So I decided to let go of this idea and just allow those earlier patterns to be, well, my earlier patterns reflecting me as a designer at that stage of my professional development.

Instead, I am changing the pricing for those older patterns. They are now 50% less, and this is not a discount, but their permanent price from now on. You can purchase these patterns here, on Ravelry where I have grouped them into a separate bundle.

Happy crocheting!

Look dressed up on a hot summer day without wearing too much clothing!

In the Shade is a lacy linen top worked in a delicate flower stitch pattern. An unusual sleeve construction reveals the shoulders while partially covering the arms.

The front and back yokes with the sleeves are made first, then joined together while crocheting the last row of the back yoke. The rest of the top is worked top down in the round with the right side always facing up. There is no seaming involved in this design.
