Styling Tips for Your Crochet Sabina Lace Top

This versatile piece is perfect for a variety of outfits and occasions—here are some ideas to inspire your wardrobe:

1. Casual Day Out

Pair your lace top with high-waisted jeans or denim shorts for a relaxed, effortless look. Add a pair of sandals or white sneakers, and you’re good to go for a coffee date, shopping trip, or picnic in the park.

2. Beach-Ready Vibes

The Sabina Top makes a beautiful swimsuit cover-up! Wear it over your bikini or one-piece with flowy linen pants or a sarong, and top it off with a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses.

3. Boho Chic

Layer your top over a bralette or bandeau and tuck it into a maxi skirt. Add some chunky jewelry, woven accessories, and leather sandals for that free-spirited, festival-ready style.

4. Office-Appropriate Layers

Want to bring handmade charm to workwear? Try layering your top over a camisole and under a blazer or cardigan. Pair it with tailored trousers or a pencil skirt for a sophisticated, professional look.

5. Evening Elegance

Dress it up with a silky midi skirt or high-waisted black pants, heels, and statement earrings. Opt for a darker yarn or one with a subtle shimmer if you’re making a version especially for night outs.

6. Transitional Weather Layering

As the seasons shift, layer your lace top over a long-sleeve fitted shirt or turtleneck. Add skinny jeans, ankle boots, and a cozy scarf for a fall-friendly outfit.


Bonus Tip: This top looks beautiful in neutral tones for a minimalist look, but don’t be afraid to try bold colors or even variegated yarns to let your personality shine through!

Notes

– This pattern is written in US terms.

– Take measurements of your body so you can chain accurate amount of stitches.

– All measurements are for the blocked final garment, not actual body size.

– Ch 3 counts as 1st dc

– This pattern made as Sizes S (M, L, XL, XXL and 3XL ).

– In this picture I have demonstrated with size Small.

– This top is worked flat in two separate pieces from the bottom up and then sewn together.

– Video tutorial is available on my Youtube channel Yelena Style Crochet.

– For both panels: there is a small difference between Row 1 and Row 2: At the beginning of Row 1, you have to skip 3 stitches before [dc, ch 2, dc], between 5dc and [dc, ch 2, dc]. At the beginning of Row 2, you have to skip 1 stitch before [dc, ch 2, dc] and after the second [dc, ch 2, dc].

These are the # of dc you should have in between the combination chain {( dc, chain 2, dc) 5 dc and ( dc, chain 2, dc) } for both panels for all sizes at the 1st row (see the picture bellow):

Size S: 8 dc – stitches

Size M: 9 dc – stitches

Size L: 10 dc – stitches
