Welcome the sunny weather with this free crochet mesh blouse pattern from By Katerina, a breezy top-down pullover that makes warm-weather layering effortless. A circular round yoke forms the visual heart of the design, spreading out into an airy openwork mesh that stays breathable through hot afternoons.
Working from the top down lets you try the blouse on as you go, ensuring a customized fit through the neckline, bust, and torso before splitting for the sleeves. Sized inclusively across nine options from XS to 5X, the pattern works up beautifully in either fingering or sport weight yarn using 4.0 mm and 4.5 mm hooks to maintain plenty of loose, flowing drape. Toss it over a camisole for weekend brunches, wear it as a lightweight beach cover-up over swimwear, or pair it with high-waisted shorts for a relaxed, modern look. Grab your favorite sport weight skeins, set up your hooks, and crochet this airy DIY mesh blouse for a chic handmade warm-weather staple!
