more use of the Romantic Lacy Shawl crochet pattern

My last post, I posted the crochet pattern I found on Red Heart with Love packing label.  The pattern was designed and created for a shawl.  But I used it as a window curtains.  The pattern is so simple and a breeze to work with that I also incorporated it on this crochet crop top, or halter top as they are called.

I am so glad I found uses for this yarn that I purchased at the Dollar Tree and more surprisingly, I actually like the smoothness of this yarn.  So it's staying on my list for now.

The only modification I've done to this crochet pattern is adding a row of single crochet  and a row of treble crochet, so I could weave in my curtain rod.
