- Use simple stitches like double crochet (dc) or half double crochet (hdc) to create texture without bulk.
- For a lacy effect, you can include chain spaces or shell stitch patterns.
- Add straps or sleeves based on your personal style—tank top, cap sleeves, or off-shoulder options.
- Always block your finished pieces to get the correct shape and smooth drape.
