The Arverne Beach Robe is perfect for layering over swimwear. Whether you need to make a quick walk to the beach bar or a long stroll along the seaside promenade, this handmade piece provides modest coverage. The robe-style cut makes it effortless to put on, while the vertical strips and ties around the waist give a beautiful slimming effect.
What Yarn Weight Keeps The Robe Light And Airy?
You don’t need to go for extra fine yarn to make this crochet beach cover-up super light and breathable. The pattern calls for worsted yarn such as Lion Brand Jeans. It’s an acrylic yarn that produces a very light fabric. This type of yarn will also give you a warmer feel, which you will surely appreciate during long evening walks along the shore and night beach parties.
What Sizes Does The Arverne Beach Robe Include?
The Arverne Beach Robe by Alexandra Tavel is written for three sizes: S/M, L/XL, XXL/XXXL. The model showcases in the photos a garment in size S/M that measures 21” (53 cm) in width and 30” (76 cm) in length. Feel free to size it up or down, depending on whether you prefer a fitted or looser fit.
Do I Crochet The Robe In One Piece Or In Panels?
This crochet beach tunic pattern is built from 3 panels: the center back panel and two main panels. You work each panel in rows lengthwise using chains, half double crochets, and double crochets.
The pattern alternates between solid and mesh-like rows to ensure a breathable and stylish effect. Once ready, you need to seam all three panels together.
