Crochet Summer Crop Top

Materials:

  • Yarn: Medium weight (4) yarn in three colors:
    1 skein of light pink, 1 skein of cream, 1 skein of lavender.
  • Hook: 4.5 mm (G/6) crochet hook
  • Tapestry needle for weaving ends.

Gauge: 14 stitches and 10 rows = 4 inches in double crochet.
To measure gauge, make a swatch of 14 stitches and 10 rows using double crochet and check your work against a measuring tape.

Abbreviations:

  • ch - chain
  • sc - single crochet
  • dc - double crochet
  • sl st - slip stitch

Instructions:

Body:

  1. Foundation Row: Chain 66 stitches. This will be the width of your crop top.
  2. Row 1: In the 4th ch from hook, work 1 dc. Work 1 dc in each ch across. Turn (64 dc).
  3. Row 2: Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), dc in each st across. Turn.
  4. Row 3-10: Repeat Row 2 until you reach 10 rows. You’ll have approximately 11 inches in height.
  5. Color Change: Switch to cream yarn. Repeat Rows 2-5 with cream for a total of 5 rows.
  6. Color Change: Switch to lavender yarn. Repeat Rows 2-5 with lavender for a total of 5 rows. You should now have 20 rows in total.

Straps:

  1. At the end of your body section, fold the top of your crop top in half to find the middle.
  2. In the middle, attach your yarn for the first strap. Chain 40 for the strap length.
  3. Working back, sc into the 2nd ch from the hook and across. Sl st to the body at the desired height.
  4. Repeat for the other side, ensuring both straps are even.

Finally, weave in all the ends with your tapestry needle and trim any excess yarn. This will ensure a clean finish.

Finishing Tips:

  • Consider blocking your crop top for a polished look. This means gently stretching it to the desired measurements and pinning it down until it dries. This helps to even out the stitches!
  • For size adjustments, you can add or remove chain stitches in the foundation chain.

Your lovely crop top is now complete! Pair it with your favorite high-waisted jeans or a skirt for a chic summer outfit.
