The thing I find with boxy mesh pullovers especially with crops, is that the lack of structure can look a little frumpy along with the hemline traveling up with movement when you do not want it to. So I worked in a Seafoam ribbed collar and hem and viola 'Structure and more stay put power'. Working colors alternate also created a bit more of a visual interest. Notes...
Double crochet: Yarn over hook (Yoh) and draw up a loop in ring, Yoh and draw through 2 loops on hook-twice = 1 dc made. Tools...
Materials...Medium or USA style/10 ply/weight garn in (Not all the garn will be used in either skeins):
Method...Neck RibbingStarting on the Peacock side and right side facing, with the Aqua Mix Print garn. Row One In Aqua Mix Print Tie in garn to top of the corner stitch and sc into same space followed by 2 chains to create first dc. *dc1 into next stitch* repeat until the Aqua Mix side is reached and switch to the peacock yarn (cut Aqua mix garn and tie into the Peacock garn). Row One continued, but switch to Peacock Work in garn to top of the last stitch (cut Peacock garn and tie into the Aqua mix garn) and *dc1 into next stitch* repeat until the Peacock side is reached and slip into the top of the previous Aqua Mix ribbing top of ch2) Row Two In Aqua Mix Print Work in garn to top of the last stitch (cut Peacock garn and tie into the Aqua mix garn) and *dc1 into next stitch* repeat until the Aqua Mix side is reached and switch to the peacock yarn (cut Aqua mix garn and tie into the Peacock garn). Row Two continued, but switch to Peacock Work in garn to top of the last stitch (cut Peacock garn and tie into the Aqua mix garn) and *dc1 into next stitch* repeat until the Peacock side is reached and slip into the top of the previous Aqua Mix ribbing top of ch2) slip to top of the beginning of the round and cut cut/sew in ends. Bottom RibbingStarting on the Peacock side and right side facing, with the Aqua Mix Print garn. Flip pullover so the hem is facing up to work the ribbing. Row One In Aqua Mix Print Tie in garn to bottom of the corner stitch and sc into same space followed by 2 chains to create first dc. *dc1 into next stitch* repeat until the Aqua Mix side is reached and switch to the peacock yarn (cut Aqua mix garn and tie into the Peacock garn). Row One continued, but switch to Peacock Work in garn to top of the last stitch (cut Peacock garn and tie into the Aqua mix garn) and *dc1 into next stitch* repeat until the Peacock side is reached and slip into the top of the previous Aqua Mix ribbing top of ch2) Row Two In Aqua Mix Print Work in garn to top of the last stitch (cut Peacock garn and tie into the Aqua mix garn) and *dc1 into next stitch* repeat until the Aqua Mix side is reached and switch to the peacock yarn (cut Aqua mix garn and tie into the Peacock garn).

In Closing...Although the ribbing could be made tighter with a smaller hook, I still liked the light gauge of ribbing created with the same hook used in the body of work...
