Easy Crochet Crop Top

Today I have a pretty basic crop top pattern for you all to try. If you are rather new to the crochet world and want to learn how to make small pieces of clothing, I think this top is right up your street.

Materials needed:

Weight 4 cotton yarn

3mm crochet hook.

Pattern:

Ch 16. Dc into 4th ch from hook. Dc to 2nd last st. Place 2dc, ch1, 2dc into last stitch. Rotate the piece so you are working on the opposite side of the ch. Continue with dc to the end. Turn.

Ch 3. Dc in every stitch until you reach the ch1-sp at the top of the cup. In this space place 2dc, ch1, 2dc. Continue with dc to end of row. Repeat this row until the cup covers your breast.

Ch 3, skip next st, hdc into following st, **ch 1, skip 1, hdc into next st. Repeat from ** to end of row.

Turn your work without making any ch at the beginning of the row. Slip stitch into the very first ch1-sp. ***5dc into next ch1-sp, slip st into next ch1-sp. Repeat from *** to the ch1-sp at the very top of the cup. Here you place 3dc, ch 200, slip st into each ch down along, then place 2dc into same space as your 3dc. Slip st into next ch1-sp, ****5dc into next ch1-sp, slip st into next ch1-sp. Repeat from **** to end. Cut yarn and fasten off. Go ahead now and make your 2nd cup in the very same way.

Ch 22. Grab one of your cups and make a dc into the bottom corner space of the cup. Then place 2dc around the end of every dc row of the cup all the way across the cup until you reach the other corner space of the cup. Here you just place 1 dc. Then ch 1, grab 2nd cup and dc into the bottom corner space of this cup. Then continue in the very same way as the other cup. When you have placed the dc into the corner space of this cup continue on without without cutting yarn and make a ch 24. Place a dc into the 4th ch from hook and then place a dc into each ch across making sure you place a dc into the ch 1 that is between the two cups.

At the end of that row, ch 4 and turn.

Skip next st, and dc into the following st. *Ch 1, skip 1, dc into next st. Repeat from * to end. Turn.

Ch 4, dc on top of the dc from previous row, **ch 1, dc on top of dc from previous row. Repeat from ** to end. Repeat this row until you are satisfied with the length you want.

Attach yarn to each of the bottom 4 corners and make separate chains on each corner of 250.
