Cotton Top

I'm not a fan of having my photo taken, but just for Diane, here I am, wearing the crochet cotton top.
I decided on a shell stitch for the edgings and  made the seams flat by working whip stitch from the outside. The shoulder seams were easier than the side seams, but as long as the needle goes through each crochet stitch consistently, it looks neat, I think:

  13. Very, very nice top. Nice photo of you, too. I have not done knit or crochet for a couple of years. I probably should, but tatting keeps me busy.

  16. The top looks very good, well done! And the edging is a very good choice for the overall wavy look.
