Have you ever seen a Datura (aka trumpet) flower? This crocheted Datura top was inspired by these messy patches of spring wild flowers as well as tattered vintage lace over wooden tables.
This beautiful, over-sized, lace top is gorgeous for layering! Featuring four classic crochet motifs, the Datura Top has sweet ruffled bell sleeves and deep square neckline. Dress it up for evening, or wear it with jeans or shorts for coffee.
