Summer top instructions
This Summer top has three different patterns and there is wonderful pattern for borders as well - all of them are so interesting, you will love them. 
The top is made out of 2 rectangles sewing together. 

The pattern was made with Cilka yarn and Lame Lang Yarns.

Yarn: Cilka: 100% acrylic, 100g / 280m, cotton and Yarn: Lamé by Lang YARNS, 75% Viscose, 25% Polyester, Weight: 25GRAMM, 224 Silver Glitter Yarn

The direction shown are for XS/S size.
For XS/S size you will need 2 skeins of Cilka yarn

This top is once again 2 rectangles seamed up the sides and along the shoulders. 
The below pattern is written for XS size. You can customize your fit based on how oversized you would like the garment to be. Each panel of the top is worked from bottom to top, so additional rows in the panel give you additional length and extra stitches give you additional width.

This top is worked from bottom up.

All Ch 3 counts as a stitch.

Instructions how to join the panels:

Lay the front and back panels together.

Seam up the sides
Seam the shoulders. This leaves a neck opening.

Shape neck: Leave center 7.8 inch / 20 cm unworked and work each side separately, then fasten off.

Recommended hook: 3.5 and 4.00 mm
I used hook 3,5 mm for the bottom part of Summer top and also the borders for this project. Then I used hook 4.00mm.

Difficulty Level: Level 2 – Advanced beginners, Intermediates 

US crochet term:
SlSt – slip stitch
CH/s – chain/s
