Berroco Briarcliffe is a breezy and beautiful crochet top that'll quickly earn it's spot in your warm weather wardrobe! Three different stitch patterns keep this project engaging to crochet and add interest in the finished garment. Layer Briarcliffe over tanks and dresses all summer for an extra splash of style and color! This top is crocheted flat in two pieces from the top down and seamed at the shoulders and sides before working the lace peplum section in the round.
