Crochet Fringe Top with Scalloped V-Neck - Boho Beach Days

<h3>At-a-Glance</h3> <p>You want a crochet top that earns its place in the beach bag by working for more than one afternoon, and this crochet fringe top is built to do exactly that. Dense floral crochet medallions fill the body and sleeves, a scalloped V-neckline finishes the front, and a fringed, scalloped hem swings loose below the waist. The three-quarter sleeves split open along the seam, so there's room to push them up without pulling the whole top out of shape.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Scalloped V-neckline</strong> - a soft finished edge that sits close to the collarbone</li> <li><strong>Dense floral crochet medallions</strong> - fuller coverage through the body than an open lattice crochet</li> <li><strong>Split three-quarter sleeves</strong> - push up easily without stretching the cuff out of shape</li> <li><strong>Fringed scalloped hem</strong> - movement at the hemline instead of a flat, straight cut-off</li> </ul> <h3>Design Details and Benefits</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Slit seam running down each sleeve</strong> - lets you push the sleeve up and down without losing its shape</li> <li><strong>Fringe worked directly into the crochet hem</strong> - hangs even and won't unravel the way a stitched-on fringe can</li> </ul> <p>The fringe is the detail that separates this from a plain crochet crop - it's crocheted directly into the hem rather than added afterwards, so it swings as one even layer instead of a few loose threads. Combined with the denser floral medallion pattern through the body, it gives more visual texture than a simple open-lattice crochet top without losing the breezy, thrown-on feel. Worth knowing before you order: the medallion pattern is still open crochet, so there's sheerness between each motif even though the coverage reads fuller than a plain mesh.</p> <h3>Fit and Coverage</h3> <p>It's cropped to sit above the waist and cut with a relaxed, boxy shape through the body. The dense crochet motifs give fuller coverage than an open lattice, though there's still sheerness between each one. Compare your measurements to our size chart before you order, and if you're between sizes, size up. Fit shifts a little with torso length, and that extra bit of room tends to sit better than going too snug.</p> <h3>Fabric and Care</h3> <p>It's made from cotton, so you get the crochet's matte, slightly textured finish. We'd suggest a gentle hand wash in cool water and laying it flat to dry, away from direct heat, which keeps the shape and finish intact for longer.</p> <h3>Styling Tips</h3> <ul> <li>A plain bikini top or bralette underneath in a solid colour</li> <li>Wide-leg linen trousers for a dressed-up beach-to-dinner look</li> <li>Wooden or shell jewellery so your accessories match the boho crochet texture</li> </ul> <h3>Details You'll Love</h3> <p>It's the top that makes a case for itself the moment the fringe catches the breeze - a small detail, but it's the difference between a top that just sits there and one that moves with you down the boardwalk.</p> <h3>Key Questions Answered</h3> <p><strong>What size crochet fringe top should I order?</strong><br>Check your measurements against our size chart before you order. It's cut loose and cropped, so there's room built into the shape itself.</p> <p><strong>Is this top see-through?</strong><br>The floral medallions give fuller coverage than an open-lattice crochet, but there's still sheerness between each motif, so a bralette underneath is worth planning for.</p> <p><strong>What is it made from?</strong><br>It's made from cotton, which gives the crochet its matte, textured finish.</p>
