Size: XS, S, M (34″–40″ bust)
AAiry and effortlessly retro, this 1980s vintage crochet pattern turns simple filet mesh into a breezy hooded tunic you’ll want to reach for all spring and summer. Worked entirely in classic filet crochet with a soft double strand of fingering weight cotton, the open, lace-like mesh stitch drapes beautifully over a swimsuit or layered with a tank underneath. The attached hood and long sleeves give it just enough structure to feel like a real garment rather than a cover-up, making it a favorite among teens and adults alike who love a lace/openwork silhouette with a bit of vintage charm.
