Hello from the Midwest

[Teri46774]

My name is Teri, and I have been crocheting since I was in grade school--my grandmother taught me how. I also enjoy other needle crafts, except knitting (ha ha). I'm not coordinated enough.
One of the main reasons why I signed up on this website was to ask for assistance locating a pattern. I'm wanting to make a bathing suit cover up BUT I'd like it to be a tunic-type style with a lace-up V-neck, a lightweight hood, & the instructions for short & long sleeves. I feel that tthere may be a few people out there who have back issues of a crocheting magazine that has this pattern (or something very similar to it). PLEASE I really need some help. I'd like it to be done in SouthMaid (or equivalent) crochet thread, using 2 strands.

Hi Teri.
I'm a crochet designer, and this would be a fun challenge to work on together. How about a custom design? Then after you've made it, maybe we could publish the pattern together!
