Since my last post, I've finished another two items. The previously mentioned top by DROPS design and also a top that was published in the most recent issue of Crochet Today!
The first item is the completed DROPS design, pattern #99-4.

| Drops Design Short Tunic - "Mussel Trim" |
This is a modified version of the
original pattern in that it is shorter. I also modified the bottom rows a bit, leaving the picots out of the first row and using them to finish the bottom hem. This is a fairly easy pattern, if someone has some experience in crochet. Cannot wait to wear this over some shorts!
The 2nd one that I finished is this yellow tank.

| 100% Pima Cotton Tank |
This too is a modified pattern in that the original pattern found in the
September/October issue of Crochet Today calls for a ruffled trim. This is the red shell on the cover. The pattern calls for a worsted weight yarn and I made this with a Pima cotton thread for summer. This is
Cascade Yarns Ultra Pima.
This has been worn already and I really, really love it! Light... cool... airy... It washes well also.
