Crochet Drop Stitch Sleeveless Shirt

This crochet pattern is for a baggy men's sleeveless shirt with a V neck. It uses a Crocheted Drop Stitch (CDS) to create stripes of long loops that give a loose mesh finish. The special stitch has a tutorial for you to follow. The design is made sideways and from the centre outwards, to make easy vertical stripes. The pattern was designed using an aran weight linen/cotton mix. The garment is made in two pieces and then sewn together. The instructions include lots of detail to ensure complex shaping is made easy. There is a lot of stretch in the finished item, so the sizing is only approximate. I have listed this pattern as "Intermediate" because of the pattern techniques. You are purchasing the .pdf pattern only, which includes full written instructions. One purchase gives you all sizes. The pattern is colour coded for the different sizes.
