BLOSSOM STITCH SUMMER TANK CROCHET PATTERN

August 13, 2019 by Rhelena 

Although shown in a comfortably snug fit, you can easily go up a few sizes to make it 

oversized. Thus it could be worn as a summer beach cover-up as well.

Garment is shown in Small size on a small mannequin.

Pattern Instructions:

Make 2

Leaving a 30″ tail, ch 66, (74, 82, 90, 98) or any multiple of 4 + 2.

Row 1 (RS): Sc in 2nd ch from hook, *sk next ch, v-st in next ch, sk next ch, sc in next ch; 

rep from * across. Turn. [16, (18, 20, 22, 24) V-sts]

sc, (sc, ch 1) in next v-st; rep from * across to last sc, dc in last sc. Turn.

Rows 4-54, (56, 58, 60, 62): Rep rows 2-3 until you have reached a desired length making 

sure to end with row 2. FO leaving a 12″ tail.

With RS facing together sew the shoulder seams 3.5″ (4″, 4.5″, 5″, 5.5″) on each side, 

eaving a 9″, (10″, 11″, 12″, 13″) opening for the neck. Shorten the shoulder seam for a 

larger neck opening.

Sew side seams leaving a 7″ (7.5″, 7.5″, 8″, 8.5″) opening for the arms. Shorten the side 

seam for larger armholes if desired. You can also leave an optional 2″-3″ slit at the 

bottom of the side seam.

Edging

Neck, Arm Openings and Bottom Edging: Join yarn (preferably along seam), ch 1, sc evenly 

around; join with sl st in first sc. FO.

Note: If you left a slit at the bottom you will need to work 3 sc into each bottom corner 

of the slit in order for it to lay flat.
