This is the bolero that my friend HS likes very much and the pattern is obtained from a Taiwan Yahoo blog. So this crocheting is for her. I am using a Japan cotton fine yarn, like lace weighting, which is very soft and light. At before, I don't like to crochet with cotton yarn for some bad experience, but now my mind is totally changed. This is my first time to crochet a top-down bolero starting with a round yoke.
Since the gauge is not the same as the pattern, I have used much time to test the tension and all the calculation. What you see from the picture is my second trial, hope this size will fit her. I will get her to try it before I go ahead.

I really like this pattern. It's very cute.
Oh, yours is so beautiful !
I'm still struggling with it.(Ripped off 2X due to the size).
yes, the crocheted motif for my bolero was from a Chinese chart. Today I will begin the third square. Good luck on your bolero!
That's a really cute little top, your friend is lucky :-)
