Crochet top and shorts coordinating set ☀️ Somnis de Punt video tutorials
Matching sets are a must for summer. Comfortable, versatile and easy to wear, they allow you to create a full outfit with two garments that you can also wear separately. In this new project on the Craft Lovers blog, Mar Montserrat from Somnis de Punt shares two video tutorials to crochet a coordinating set of top and shorts using Katia Estrella. Choose your favorite color and enjoy an ideal set for the summer!
Behind Somnis de Punt are Mar and Aitor, mother and son, who have turned their passion for textile techniques into a meeting place for creative people of all ages. Mar Montserrat is a knitting and crochet designer and teacher with more than 20 years of experience. For this project, she has been inspired by the sense of freedom summer brings, creating a light and flattering set designed for you to wear on an afternoon stroll along the beach during your holidays.
Crochet top and shorts coordinating set
The Summer Set consists of a halter top and crochet shorts that you can wear together or with other pieces in your wardrobe. Its simple and timeless design turns this project into the perfect option for those who want to make comfortable and modern summer clothing that is easy to adapt to your style.
To make both pieces, Mar has chosen Katia Estrella, a yarn with extraordinary drape that provides the fabric with movement and a flattering finish. The emerald blue color, inspired by the sea during the summer, highlights the coolness of this set.
