The King Cole Cottonsoft DK Stripe Tops Crochet Pattern 6500 features two fresh, colourful summer tops — a sleeveless version and a short‑sleeve option, both worked in soft, breathable Cottonsoft DK. Designed in four coordinating shades with a neat picot edging, these tops are light, comfortable and perfect for warm‑weather wear.
This pattern offers a choice of two stylish looks. The sleeveless top is crocheted in a beautiful blend of purple, iris, pink and ecru, creating a soft yet vibrant striped effect. The short‑sleeve version uses refreshing shades of jade, mint, apple and ecru for a bright, summery finish. Both designs are trimmed with a delicate picot edging, adding a subtle decorative touch that complements the clean, modern stripes.
With instructions for sizes XS to 3XL (28–54 inches), this pattern is suitable for a wide range of makers and body shapes. The simple construction and clear UK‑term instructions make it an enjoyable project for confident beginners and experienced crocheters alike.
