For those who have mastered basic knitting techniques and are ready to expand their skills. Patterns may introduce slightly more complex techniques and patterns, such as shaping, increasing, decreasing or working multiple colors or easy lace patterns. The yarn weight may vary, and the patterns might introduce working with double-pointed needles or circular needles. Patterns will help knitters gain confidence and experience with new techniques while still working within a manageable level of difficulty.

Embrace your star sign with the Cancer Cami Kit, a top-down crochet camisole featuring a charming two-color stitch pattern inspired by tiny crabs. Designed by Ana-Maria of CrochetHighway, this seamless design includes thoughtful shaping at the neckline and armholes for a flattering, non-boxy fit, plus invisible round joins for a polished finish. The piece is edged with crab stitch detailing at the neckline, armholes, and hem, adding a playful nod to its marine theme. With a generous size range covering chests from 27.5 to 72 inches, and the option to wear it solo in warm weather or layered as a vest in cooler seasons, the Cancer Cami is a stylish, versatile piece for any wardrobe.
The Cancer Cami is the fifth crochet garment pattern published in the Zodiac Crochet Collection – a series of crochet garments and accessories that follow a common theme: colorwork made easy. As with all CrochetHighway designs, the pattern includes clear, step-by-step instructions and photo tutorials to guide you confidently through each stage.
The included Amble yarn is a fingering weight blend of Merino wool, alpaca, and recycled nylon—carefully chosen for its breathability, temperature regulation, and cozy softness. This luxurious natural fibre yarn is great for low-maintenance care thanks to Amble’s chlorine-free, machine-washable Easy-wash finish. Amble’s smooth texture and excellent stitch definition let the two-color stitch pattern shine, while the yarn’s durability ensures your cami will remain a wardrobe staple for years to come.

Photographs show the cami crocheted using shades White Heather (MC) and Walk Me Home (CC). These colors are used as follows:

Tips for choosing the Main Color: Light neutral colors work well here, to highlight the crab stitch detailing.
Color 2 (CC) — used in the pink edging of the neck, armholes and hem.
Tips for choosing the Contrast Color: This color should stand out from the Main Color, think of darker, bolder colors to frame the little crab motifs.
To choose your kit colors, select Color 1 for the Main Color (MC), and Color 2 for the Contrast Color (CC).
