Swimsuit Coverups

[tnlefty]

Below are the coverups I made for my daughter and oldest granddaughter. I made the blue and white one out of 100% cotton. The black one I made using Speed-Cro-Sheen #3 which is what the pattern called for. We decided to leave the sleeves off (see picture of pattern below), because I believe it would have made the coverups too hot.

I had trouble finding it the first time. There are several hoops to jump through after you get to coats and clark's home page.
