We don’t know about you, but we’ve been daydreaming about summer fashion since temperatures started to drop. If you can relate, we’ve got a treat for you: a little insight into one of the biggest trends you’ll see this summer: crochet. While it seems crochet is always a summertime staple, this year, be prepared to see it come back looking a little like this…
Mesh Totes

We love these mesh bags. If you’re a seasoned crocheter, you can whip one up in no time flat! But you’ll be seeing a ton of them on the market soon. They’re super cute, hold a ton of stuff thanks to their stretch, and are the perfect way to complete any grocery-store outfit.

You may not see this look in stores because it’s nearly impossible to re-create the homemade vibe. So consider asymmetric tops, like this one from one up from LoupyStudio, a UK-based crocheter with a knack for the hook and an eye for style. Be quick, though! She sells out as quickly as she stocks.
