Crochet Pattern: Swimsuit Coverup (9 Sizes)

Posted in Best Crochet Patterns on June 8th, 2014 by Rachel Choi – 4 Comments
This swimsuit coverup looks like a cute dress, but is constructed like a wrap. The mesh pattern is quick and easy to crochet, and allows for the coverup to stretch. The light weight yarn and light stitch pattern is great for wearing on the beach or by the pool. The pattern includes instructions for 9 different sizes from X-small to 5X, but also includes instructions for customizing the width and length as you see fit.
