15 Crochet Beach Cover Ups

In this post, you will see 15 crochet beach cover-ups.

Time to shed your heavy sweaters and cardigans, store them in your closet until September and pull out your summer clothes, your jean shorts, and summer dresses.

So grab your flip-flops and sandals and let’s head to the beach. 

And if you want to be stylish even at the beach, fun bathing suits, light swimsuit cover-ups, and unique bags are going to be your jam this summer.

Don’t Forget Your Crochet Cover Up

Bikini cover-ups are not just practical but can make the perfect outfit for all your beach activities, pool parties, beach parties, beach bars, and more!

Cover-ups are a must for the beach as it is essential to keep a layer between us and the sun. 

Long sun exposure has very negative side effects and we must protect ourselves. 

Use a high-protection sunscreen(and keep reapplying through the day), hats, and sunglasses, keep in the shade, and of course, wear a layer of clothing.

Create Your Own Summer Wardrobe

Especially if you love to craft your own summer clothes, you can crochet the bathing suit cover-up of your dreams. 

While there are wonderful options in the market you can easily purchase, crocheting your own beachwear can help you unleash your creativity and can also make your own unique beach cover-up catered to fit your unique body and style.

Plus there are so many free crochet patterns and paid online you can follow, from easy ones that are perfect for beginners, and more complicated ones for more experienced crocheters.

Choosing The Right Yarn Weight

When making your own summer garment, one of the most important things you need to consider is the yarn weight you are going to use. 

It’s better to use lighter yarns as you need the fabric to be airy and light. 

Cotton yarn is an excellent option.

Plus consider an openwork pattern design when choosing the beach coverup pattern you are going to make.

 Not only does it create a breathable fabric but a unique texture too!

The Perfect Style Of Beach Cover Up  

You can choose from many designs: a crochet cover-up dress, a kaftan, a cardigan with a belt or not, a shawl, a wrap that you can tie in the middle, a tank top, a tee-shirt dress, a skirt, and a sweater. 

Plus you can customize the details for example on top patterns – sleeves or no sleeves.
