Crocheted in soft, sport-weight cotton, this beach coverup is both light and snuggly at the same time. Worked in a deceptively simple mesh pattern with ridging that gives the fabric extra visual interest, its breezy enough for a blazing hot day on the sand.

This garment is worked in five rectangular and two square pieces, with no shaping at all. The patch pockets blend right in with the drape of the body.

A simple (sc, ch-1) border finishes this coverup with a chic and subtle edge.
