The Laila Top is a crochet pattern that creates a loose-fitting top with a rich texture and ruffled borders. As a made-to-measure pattern, it requires you to take your own body measurements and follow the instructions to calculate and write your own stitch counts. You can also adjust the width and length of the top to suit your size, body type, and desired fit. The body panel is crocheted from the bottom up in turned rounds, and the ruffles and straps are added later. This pattern can be made with any kind of yarn, including those with different weights and fibers. It has been tested by 14 crocheters with a range of sizes and body types to ensure a good fit for all.
