Before you start crocheting, you’ll need to determine your size. This will help you figure out how many stitches to make and how many rows to work. Measure your bust, waist, and hips, and compare your measurements to a sizing chart to find the size that’s right for you. These Free Crochet Tank and Crop Top Patterns features some of the best summer crochet tops designs out there. Whether you’re in the mood for a casual top or something more dressy, these crochet tops will have you looking your best.
Crochet Crop Mesh Cardigan
This is a great project for those who want to create a stylish and trendy Crochet Crop Mesh Cardigan that’s lightweight and breathable. Here is a detailed explanation of how to create your own.
Start with the back panel. Chain 81 stitches (or any even number of stitches that fits your size) and double crochet in the fourth chain from the hook. Double crochet in each chain stitch across the row. Chain 2 and turn.
For the next row, double crochet in the first stitch, chain 1, skip the next stitch, and double crochet in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern across the row. Chain 2 and turn. Repeat step 2 until the back panel measures the desired length. For the front panels, chain 39 stitches and work the same stitch pattern as in step 2 until the front panels measure the same length as the back panel.
To create the sleeves, chain 39 stitches and work the same stitch pattern as in step 2 for the desired length.
To join the panels together, fold the back panel in half and sew the top corners together. Then, sew the front panels to the back panel at the shoulders.
For the sleeves, fold the panels in half and sew the edges together to create a tube. Then, sew the sleeves to the body of the cardigan.
To start, you’ll need some Milk cotton yarn in your desired color. Cotton or linen blends work well for this project. You’ll also need a crochet hook size 4.5 mm hook, scissors, and a tapestry needle.
Crochet Floral Square Top
Start with a slipknot and chain as many stitches as you need for the desired width of your project. For the first row, insert your hook into the second chain from the hook and make a single crochet. Continue making single crochet stitches across the row, chaining one at the end of each row and turning your work.
For the second row and beyond, insert your hook into the first single crochet stitch of the previous row, then make a single crochet. Continue making single crochet stitches at the end of each row and turning your work.
To create the textured pattern seen in the video, work the following stitch pattern: *single crochet in the first stitch, skip the next stitch, make 5 double crochet stitches in the next stitch, skip the next stitch, repeat from * across the row, ending with a single crochet stitch in the last stitch.
