BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Crochet splice top

I like the top I found here. <img src="/images/graemlins/irish.gif" alt="" /> http://www.berroco.com/233/233_dusty_sophie_pv.html

Has anyone made something simalar? I'm wondering how much over lap you would need.

Oh my !
I would be grabbing a cover if I saw my g-daughters in something this short. They are LARGE on the top. As my daughter and I.
We (Grampap and I) want to have our girls covered up.

But if it were longer I would love the Top.

I think making something to wear is awesome.
I just Crocheted a hat ( [color:"blue"] Blue [/color]) with a swirl top and peak and Knitted a scarf with a popcorn type stitch , everyone ooo's and Ahhh's at hand made items.

LOL @ Hen! know what ya mean....lets see, how many years has it been since i could wear something like this..., well ok, never. 'cause like you hen, the Lord decided to bless me "abundantly" up top (been a 36-C since 7th grade), and tops like this just made me look like a "working girl" *wink wink*, know what i mean?? i got enough attention as it was because of them. and my mom would have had a stroke and died before she'd have let me out of the house wearing something that showed that much. that was in the early 80's. boy, our level of acceptance sure has changed over the last 20 years or so. am i old or what?
you skinny girls go for it. if you can pull it off (not the shirt...hehe), wear it.

Add me to the list. Trust me I am no prude, I honestly believe that if you have a nice body then of course show it off but for some weird reason I have NEVER liked the low cut pants and most of the tops that go with them. It all looks fine if you are standing up but when you sit down, it looks totally horrible. I can't tell you how many times I have seen , well you know what I see <img src="/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> . Now I have worn in my time some very revealing clothing but I always made sure that I looked good sitting, standing, dancing etc. My Dad always told me and I quote "If you're going to go out drinking, wear a dress and your best underware....that way if you fall off the barstool you will still look pretty" !!!!!!

I'm not into the low pants either I don't care how much they advertise the "new cleavge" I still don't think anyone looks good with plummer's crack. <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
LOL I can't believe your dad told you that. I'm still laughing.

I hate to be the prude but I love it and I would wear it. Luckily for me I am a size 34A,(flat as a board)weigh 118 lbs. and am 45 years old. I fancy the low waisted paints as well; no plummers crack here though. LOL Thanks to good genes I am often confused for my 24 year old married daughters sister.

ROFL!!!! @ Eva!! I always sat at a table...that way, i didn't have as far to fall! Then i could just twist around, fall on the boobies, and bounce right back up, like a beach ball! HA!!! would you believe, i actually had someone ask me once, "are those yours?" i was kinda offended, but then i realized that enlargments are the "in" thing for those without. i guess it would be a normal assumption, but still kinda rude to ask. i just calmy responded "no, i borrowed them from my roomate for the weekend." *here's your sign* <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> HA!

as an after thought - i think leaving a little to the imagination is a good thing. once the mystery has been revealed where's the fun.
i agree...plummer's crack is disgusting...no matter how good the body looks. might as well walk around naked.
oh i'm laughing now...remembering my dad when he was building our house when i was a kid...him all bent over putting in floors, it was hot summer time....ewwwww!!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

My daughter would probably look cute in this top but I don't think she would wear it. She's slim and trim but raised modest. She doesn't even wear shorts out in public so the top would have no chance at all. Since we are voicing opinions, I'm not a low waist fan either. I inherited some of those pants from my daughter and took them to Good Will the next day. I couldn't stand to even wear them in the house. I don't consider myself a prude, just some one with good common sense and likes to feel comfortably dressed in any situation.

Isabella, I am SOOO JEALOUS. I'm 45 and gained about 30 lbs results of quitting smoking and menopause (I'm on a diet right now and I have shed 10lbs of it so far)
Butterfly, you crack me up. I am sitting here right now imagining all of us going ANYWHERE together. We would proabaly scare the [censored] out of a shop owner because I think we would get to be so silly but it would be fun.
