I attended different events throughout the summer old and new crochet outfits.
The last trip that I made was to St. Maarten in August. I wanted to have a crochet bathing suit for this trip and was not able to finish before I left home. The top was in two parts but had been basically completed. I was crocheting the bikini bottom on the plane and when I arrived in St. Maarten. I used the crochet pattern from Interweave Crochet Summer Issue to create the bottoms.
I completed the bathing suit and was able to wear it to the bonfire to Friar's Bay beach.

Other events during the summer:
Dancing on a Tuesday Summer Night in July
Dancing at the Aloft Hotel on a Friday Summer Evening after work in July
I attended the Barbie Convention 2016 in Jacksonville Florida during the last week in July
The theme was Pop Art.
I won 2nd Place for my crochet design in the category "dress a doll in black and white with a hint of color.
I participated in the fashion show. I was Pop Art Christie
One of the evening dinner events celebrated Roy Lichenstein. I decided to created my own superhero costume with mask.
At the convention, we picked tables that we would like to sit at for the entire convention. The hostess gives out table gifts and the tablemates do too. I decided to create crochet dresses as my table gift.
Here are a few of them.
The last night was the banquet. The theme was Urban Graffiti. I decided to make a tribute dress to Jean Michel Basquiat.
The Stepping Weekend hosted by the Tri-State Steppers in Philadelphia during the first week of August.

The theme for the main event was purple.
I created this purple dress by using the bikini top from the Summer Issue of Interweave Crochet.
This concludes my Summer Crocheting.
