CROCHET: This early “Barbara Warner” design for Twilleys is a great retro set; hot pants or shorts and crop top plus matching skirt, perfect for the beach and a cute alternative to a standard bikini.
The sexy little short sleeved top is tied at the front; the shorts and midi skirt sit just below the waist.
A sexy but wearable and versatile addition to any summer wardrobe.
Easy to make, if you can do a treble stitch and make a ‘granny square’ you can make this. Also an incentive is you can wear the first finished piece before the whole set is done!
It could also be adapted really easily, as the garments are worked waist down, bust up. You could make the skirt mini length, a little more wrapped or button it up. It could also be made with the skirt attached at the bust a hip length or longer cover-up, or even a dress.
All you need to go with it is your gorgeous figure and some sunshine-and maybe some sandals!
