Valerie Tunic Women Sizes Crochet Pattern

Valerie Tunic Women Sizes Crochet Pattern

You guys I loved working the By the Bay Tunic and when it was finished I wanted to design another tunic and the Valerie Tunic didn't disappoint. This tunic has a beautiful texture, works up super quick and is simple to make. This tunic is definitely going in my closet to wear this fall and winter. Turquoise, aqua and any of these blue shades are my favorite colors this year, so when I found some I Love This Yarn in turquoise in my stash, I knew that is the color I wanted to use. I love tops that I can layer over a tank top and can go with leggings or jeans.  You can also make the child version too and you can make coordinating mother/daughter tunics!

I loved making these tunics that I wanted to host the #ValerieTunicCAL which will run July 31st - thru August 13th (this giveaway has already passed).  Head over to the Valerie Tunic CAL post and see the schedule, details and giveaway prizes!
