About This pattern will allow you to make the dress and top version. You will NOT need to purchase separate patterns. The Daisy Chain Top is a cute little take on daisy chains and takes its inspiration from the classic daisy chain flowers, known for their simplicity and timeless appeal. The design captures the essence of these charming blooms, making it a truly unique and eye-catching piece. The daisy chain dress/crop is worked from the top down, starting with the flowered pattern, then continuing down to the waist where the piece is shaped. From here you can customise and choose to keep as a cute summer crop or continue down and work as a dress. Shaping occurs around the waist and hips and is then worked down to the desired length, finishing with the flower pattern at the hem. Skill Level Advanced Beginner.
