Check out the free crochet crop top pattern! It has all the sizing info (sizes XS - 3XL), measurements, yarn amounts and alteration instructions ☺
Finished this project today! I’m definitely a beginner and I’m also left handed but regardless this was a really easy tutorial to follow so thank you! Turned out super cute and I recommend for any beginners
How long did you take to finish it?
@@alexaa777 same question hope you can answer
how much grams of yarn did you need??
I am also left handed ^^ thank u for ur encouraging words
Finished today making this top. Thank you for the tutorial!
I’m stuck inside because of the pandemic and I’m working on this project now. Thank you for such an easy to follow tutorial to keep me busy instead of worrying!!
I would like to learn a trade and I have chosen this, I made a list of your videos and I was so terrified to see them because this looks so difficult and I have never even had a needle in my hands... thank you for being so thoughtful and meticulous, also for explaining in a simple and understandable way even for those who have zero experience!!❤❤❤
I am working on this top now and it is my third crochet project ever! Very easy to follow instructions, thanks!
Great job! I'm so glad you find the tutorial helpful :)
How much time did it take
@@vasusartworld276 Not long at all, I think it took me two weeks. Done in my free time as I had college classes and work. Give it a try!
@@Cecilia13241 yes thank you, This is the 3rd top i wanna do as i alr did the other two ,
Thanks . Very easy to follow ✌️
I'm loving how u pause the video to show what you are explaining. Greatly appreciated
I thinking about doing it but i'am wondering about the time it take
Cause am not a very patient person 😅😅😅
Amazing Bt can I use milk cotton yarn for it ?
Any Brazilian that is making this: what local brand of yarn do you recommend? / Brasileiros: qual marca de linha vcs recomendam pra isso? 🇧🇷🇧🇷❤️❤️
Can I use an alternative yarn? If yes, can you suggest some please? Thank you
Sure as long as you meet gauge you should be ok! I'd recommend an acrylic or cotton/acrylic blend yarn so that the top can stretch to fit you!
Grace
May I ask what's gonna be the difference if I use a 4ply indophil and polycotton yarn? Sorry a complete noob here haha
This top is exactly what I was looking for! I love it! :D
So glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching :)
I had Issues meself how to decrease crocheting around shoulder and elbow
Hi Ivelisse, this pattern (Tie strap crop top) doesn't have any decreases in it the top is a tube (it stretches out to fit your body after you've worn it a few times, so the bust portion will become wider than the waist) and the straps also don't have any decreases. Maybe you're having issues with a different pattern?
Thanks
Hey @forthefrills for the circumference of the top should we take the waist length or the bust length?
Can someone gives tips to make sure the work isn’t twisted? I redid the first 4 stitches and the work was not twisted. However, as I build it up, it begin to twist
I am handicapped and don't walk anymore , but I'm still able to do most everything else , , crocheting, and sewing my favorite hobbies , I have just made this top for a friend's daughter it turned out lovely. Thanks for sharing and giving all such an easy tutorial to follow...
Have to be honest. I failed 5/6 times before I got the chain thing ...😅 but hopefully I'm getting it right now hahahah
dianne tapalla omg sameeeee
It took me a week to do this, exhausting, but glad I did it
@forthefrills I was wondering why you need to turn your chain at row 3? Do you then turn it each time you've crocheted the round until 37, or keep going without turning? Thank you!
Hi Valentine, I turn after every round so that the seam runs straight down the middle of the back of the top. If you don't have to turn after every row, the seam will curve and slant in one direction. I hope this helps, Grace :)
@@forthefrills Thank you very much! Your videos are so well made, they are precise and to the point, and very calming! :)
Your teaching style is excellent. Thank you for pausing the video when you are explaining things. Beautiful design and well done
I will definitely try this after lockdown. Love from Nepal🇳🇵
Hi, when you repeat round 3, do you turn your work every time?
Hi Sophia,
Yes you turn your work after every round.
Grace :)
Almost done with this!! Just have to finish making the straps. Thanks for the tutorial :) I increased with the last 5 rows just so it could fit my bust a little better. I have a slightly more “triangle” torso. So happy with the turnout!
Sounds great! I'm so happy you like your top :)
Hi, are you using woolen yarn in this?
Hey so you increased the stitches on the last five rows?
Esta hermoso 😍😍😍😍😍😍.
¡Gracias!
Hello!!!! So I'm using this tutorial but I'm finding it very hard to keep a straight line😩.....what can do or is there another method??
Did you ever find out how to keep it straight?
hi I'm from Brazil. I loved the video, could you tell me the size of the yarn texture?
Qual linha vc acabou usando? Tô pensando na charme nas acho q é mais fina
Heyy I really need your help! I was looking at the measurements in your blog ( by the way your tutorial and blog are really really helpful) and I saw that the bust actual measurement is 30 inches for xs and 34 inches for s and I wanted 32 inches so instead of 100 or 116 stitches in the foundation chain.. should I do 108 stitches..? Please reply..the thing is I am making it for someone and I can't wear and check so I need to be right :(.. please help
Yo quiero las instrucciones en Español por favor
Hello! Love your videos 💕 very beginner friendly. Hope you could make a halter top for your next video
Thank you Allyssa! I'll add it to my list :)
How many grams of yarn did u use??
how many grams of yarn you need for this top? please answer this, thanks!❤️
How I should do if I want to make size M?
🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
How long in cm is your strap? Btw, i love the top🫶
Can we count 1cm as 1 chain?
What’s the value of doing FHDC over chaining 100 and then HDC into those chains?
I’m trying to determine whether it’s worth learning a new way of stitching 🙃
Hii I really love this tutorial! I’m already making the top but my my number of HDC seems to keep on increasing, is that normal or am I doing something wrong? Pls answer🥺 thankyou
Love this tutorial so much!! Wouldn’t it also be possible to simply start crocheting the straps onto the top itself so there’s no darning needle needed?
Thanks Camille! Yes you could crochet the straps directly on but I find that it makes it more difficult to get perfect placement and the stitches can 'pull' on the top so the first round of the top isn't as straight. But feel free to alter this pattern to suit you :) Grace
@@forthefrills disculpe cuantas vueltas le dio a los tirantes osea cuanto le miden de largo?
Puede s traducir al español
I love how you take your time to teach and easy to follow instructions
How to make it straight???
super pretty! thanks a lot! 🥺 anw, how long the yarn u used for this?
This is the easiest crochet top... Thanku sooooo much mam... Lots of Love from India.
Will it make a big difference if I use a 3.5 hook instead of a 4? Love this top btw
i couldnt find a 4 hook either i was about to ask too!
Maybe not, that's what i use and it doesn't come out too shabby
Hi Selma,
If you use a different hook size, it will probably change the gauge. So you can follow the pattern as a guide but you'll have to alter the number stitches and rounds you crochet so your top will fit.
Grace :)
@@forthefrills Hi. Ok. Thank you so much!
@@selmareginebjerkreim5388 how many chains did you make?
Oh you’re right up my alley! Happily subbed, best of luck with your channel💜🙏💜
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like the video :)
Can I use 365 cashmere?
@forthefrills , My yarn is fuzzy and I am having trouble with the FHDC, can I just crochet up 100 and chain one and go back and half double crochet instead? I hope that makes sense. Love all of your videos
Hi Kymberly, you can use a foundation chain then crochet across but the first row of your top will have less stretch and might not fit over your head! I'd recommend crocheting the first round and then see if your yarn is stretchy enough to fit over head. If so, your top should be fine :)
Grace
Hello and thx for this tutorial.....can I make this top with normal foundation chain?
hiii, may i ask how to change the size for someone who has big bust?
Hola soy nueva , no entiendo como hacer la tira del principio? 😣
How many count for semi large? Thank you!!
Hii!! Thank u so much for your video just wanted to know do I have to get the exact type of yarn?
Your top turned out wider at the top and less wide at the bottom.
Mine is like a rectangle
Can you help me please ?
Me ayudas y no se que medidas tomas quiero uno para mi hija ella es talla S
Can you drop stitches as you go through the rounds so that the top fits your waist as well as your bust?
I think the same, try to put it a d its hard work
Hello..for size medium how much of yarn take?200grams?
Thanks
How do you keep your rows so straight for the straps?
How much yarn is needed for one crop top approximately
me i know how many yarn that crochet crop top can consume!
Beautiful, keep safe and may God bless you always, friend from Philippines
Me encanta🥺 solo quisiera saber traducirlo:(
Hi. I want to try this but can i use polyester yarn instead of worsted yan?
How many grams yarn need? Thank you!
Hello, do I have to follow every measurement you said? hehe this is my first time to crochet, please respond :)
Hi Jane, You can make this top to fit your measurements - just make sure to try it on as you go so you are 100% sure it fits! Grace :)
@@forthefrills okay thank you very muuuch ❤
How many grams of yarn did you use for this?
Can I know what is your blog.
I don't know why I always tend to ruin my work when doing 3rd row. It seems pike increasing or decreasing. Sad
Is 175m long thread is enough for a xs size?
Hi, all the yarn amounts are listed in the blog post - link in the description :)
Grace
Hi Grace! I have 2 questions:
1: I have about 3.65 oz or 103 g of yarn to work with (I'm making the xs I think) But in the past I tend to come up short on yarn in the middle of the project without any yarn of the same color. Do you think I will run out or is this enough?
2: Instead of making the tie straps could I possibly just make 2 longer straps that just go all the way over and I sew to the front and the back?
Let me know, thank you for your time and helpful videos. :)
What are the measurements of size xs , s and m?
Hi Theresa, all the details for sizing are in the free crochet pattern (link in the description!) Grace
@@forthefrills thank you so much ... (I'm sorry but idk know your name )...
hello!! to those who have finished this project, around how much yarn did you guys use (in grams)? since I'm not sure if my yarn is enough and I wanted to make sure before I buy the same color. Thank you so much!!
Can i use weigth yarn?
DK weight yarn - click on the link in the description bar for the full free written pattern :)
Hi can I ask about the price of the yarn??
Could I use a 4 weight yarn
How many bundles of yarn did it take to do this please???
I don't know what I'm doing wrong😢
Hi! When you turn to start the next round, do you HDC in the first HDC from the previous round or into the slip stitch? Thanks!
I have the same question. I must be doing something wrong because the number of stitches keeps increasing with each row for me.
Have you found out which way to do it? I am having this problem too.
sl st into 1st HDC
So I just want to make sure! After each round, I flip over my work and then create another row of half double crochets right?
thank you!!!! im so excited to make this !!!
Amayzing!!! I will learn it!
Any alternative yarns?
Hi Brianna, I'd recommend cotton-acrylic blends so that your top has stretch but is still cool enough for summer :)
Grace
How much gram need it?
Super easy
Can I use milk cotton yarn on this top?
Can I use 3.5 hook or 5mm hook? This is only available
Is the ribbon on the sleeves crocheted to be tied or you stiched an already crocheted ribbon on the sleeves?
i seem to be increasing every round... what is going wrong ? :(
Hi rusa, it sounds like you're adding an extra stitch at the end of each round. Remember that you shouldn't work into the space by the turning chain at the end of a round - it isn't actually a stitch!
I hope this helps,
Grace
and mine was decreasing in every round🤣..
so i counted stiches after each round and it worked
@@forthefrills is there any way to make longer in bust area and shorter in waist area?
hello, i'm brazilian, could someone help me? I wanted to know the step by step, just write how to make this beautiful blouse, thanks in advance!
No blog dela tem um passo a passo escrito. forthefrills.com/tie-strap-crop-top-free-crochet-pattern/
Where can I read your blog?
I really wanna do this, but I struggle with the foundation chain, is it possible to not do it and just chain and then HDC?
hi! is it okay or would you recommend using camel stitch for this top?
What kind of yarn did u use? And what's the best yarn to use for tops?
this is my first time crocheting and i finished this in 3 days! love ur content ❤️
Can u tell aoprox. how much of yarn used
Hi Purva, all the yarn amounts are in the blog post - linked in the description! Grace :)
@@forthefrills thank you❤
Purva Goswami i made size small, and i made the top longer so i used more yarn than the tutorial which was xs. i used a little less than two balls of 285yds/4.5 oz or 260m/127.5g of medium 4 acrylic yarn (that’s all that was available to me). it was about a ball and a half of the yarn that i bought (it was a huge ball). sorry if that doesn’t make sense to you, i’m new to crochet measurements. i would recommend not using acrylic, the top was stiff and not super soft. i don’t mind tho!
i am so making this!😍
Hi Grace! I love this tutorial so much! Thank you so much! May I ask what is the color of the yarn please? Thank you!
Would a 6 mm hook be way too big?
Can i turn this into a dress?
Queria saber q linha é essa,é lã??
Planning on doing this but I have a bigger bust then my waist so I don’t know how that will work Will it stretch through my body? Im confused someone help me please 🥺
Hi Samantha, I'd recommend checking out the free written pattern (there are suggested measurements). If you want your top to have a more fitted look make sure you use a stretchy yarn!
Grace
forthefrills oh ok Thank You so much 😊
Will try this crochet top when I'm already finish my 2nd crochet project. So excited to do this!!!
Can you make pants next
How do you design for stretch? Is it difficult to put on? I usually make lace up tops
Hi,
When it comes to stretch, yarn choice is EVERYTHING. Cotton-acrylic blends work best for summer tops! 100% cotton yarns have no stretch to them so that's why they need to be laced up if you want them to be form fitting.
I hope this helps,
Grace
@@forthefrills thank you so much this helps a lot❤❤❤
