Basic Crochet Top // Crochet Top Tutorial

Hi there, I decided to remake the tutorial for this simple crochet top design because I needed to make this as a base in order to complete my next design - okay, that doesn't make sense. Basically, I wanted to update my simple crochet top tutorial so that you have a more solid understanding of my next crochet top design; which incorporates a simple crochet top design as it's base... Anyway, I'm sorry if this tutorial goes pretty fast, but it was a last minute decision to make this tutorial & I have another tutorial for the same exact design anyway, so I thought I would just upload this as a refresher.
However, if you are new to crochet and are looking for a more beginner friendly tutorial on this design, please visit the link above for a much more easy-to-follow tutorial. Thank you, & happy crocheting!

♢ What size hook did you use? ♢
- Size 5mm

♢ What is the yarn weight? ♢
- 4

♢ How much yarn did you use? ♢
- 1020yd/918m

♢ How long did it take you to make? ♢
- I'm not sure, I work on projects over a couple of days because I'm busy. I would say around 2 hours total

♢ Can I buy your tops? ♢
- No, I do not sell the tops I make.

♢ Do you have a written copy of the pattern? ♢
-No, I make up my design as I go along and then narrate the video afterwards so that you can better understand my thought process

♢How do you wash your tops? ♢
- Wash by hand, hang dry

♢Do you wear anything under? ♢
- Usually I do not. If I feel that something will show, however, I sew in a layer of fabric or padding

♢How many chains/ rows did you make? ♢
-Unless I state it in the video, I did not keep track of how many I made. I make up the pattern as I go and make as many chains and rows I feel will fit my body.

♢ Can you help me with/ I am confused/ I don't understand...
- You can ask your questions in the comments below for others to answer. I have concluded my offer for online tutoring and will no longer respond to ANY messages regarding crochet questions, charts, patterns, tips, etc. I'm retired(:

* I just wanted to post this because there have been a number of wonderful people tagging me in their crochet posts and messaging/ commenting on how much I have helped them. I just wanted to give back(: Also, I've had this tutorial on my computer for a while haha But normally I won't make crochet top tutorials until my last one reaches 1k likes. Remember, I WILL NOT ANSWER ANY CROCHET QUESTIONS ON ANY OF MY VIDEOS OR SOCIAL MEDIA. I will not allow myself to be a free online personal tutor. It was stressful 😅 Feel free to ask your question in the comments & if you can, answer other people's questions (much appreciated) but know that I only provide this tutorial and any additional help will come with a charge (so people don't take advantage of me, get help from me, and then take my design and sell them on their website as their own [ aughh ] )

Okay, to my fellow big boob community, and itty bitty tiddy alike, A start with 10, B starts with 12, C starts with 14, D starts with 16, and so on adding 2 for each cup size increase. I have found that a good area for how many rows to do is the same amount you started with if you want a good amount of coverage. Don't be too upset if you need to fiddle around with the stitches, it will take a while to get it right, you can do it! Hope this helped 💕

I’ve got a US cup size guide for u guys!
A cup= 10 chains + 20 rows
B cup= 12 chains + 22 rows
C cup= 14 chains + 24 rows
D cup= 16 chains + 26 rows
E cup= 18 chains + 28 rows

Omg thanks so much! I'm 10 years old and I love knitting because my grandma did. She passed when I was a baby so I never got to see her. She inspires me a lot. I'm making this for my 13 sister for the summertime. Thanks for your help! I love your videos. :)))

This is my first ever crochet project and I finished it yesterday, I made a the body a bit too small for myself so I took it out and im starting it over :)
Edit: ayee I finished it again yesterday and it fits and looks so perfect :)))

I am an experienced crocheter, I absolutely LOVE your technique and design. Thanks so much for creating it and posting this tutorial Krystal. I am working on healing from cancer, and this helps keep my hands and mind active when my body needs rest (I hate sitting and being in bed, so crocheting this is motivation to rest LOL I am stubborn!!). YOU ROCK and you totally made my day good today. Also, it gives me something to look forward to wearing that is comfortable. THANK YOU KRYSTAL!

when you have no idea how to crochet but still watch the whole video

[earthpayton]

I learned how to crochet when I was young and I havent done it in awhile its so fun

[saviclements]

it hurt my feelings when she said she's going to unravel it because it looks so freaking pretty

[sydneyyoungman]

me, a beginner: "why we goin so FAST??"

[marynourinventor]

Wow! This is the most clear and educational crochet tutorial that I have ever watched! I love the way she talks you can clearly understand.Thank you for sharing this ideas.

[mariak]

As a beginner, I can say that this tutorial is really nice! It was easy to follow and I managed to finish this project in 2 days! This was my first time crocheting a crop top and it turned out really nice! Thank you! 💕

[lauraeve]

I’m 55 and been crotcheting since I was nine. I have to say your lesson is very good! Clear and easy instructions and made a very nice top! Thank you

[beatrizgomez]

I've been doing crochet over four months and I have to say my tops looks perfect. Good tutorial easy to follow I'm really happy thanks

[aurorajuarez]

This is my first time trying to make a top and only my second “big” project. It took me about a week but it came out amazing and it took me a while to make sure I was doing it right but this video helped soooo much and was an amazing reference

[khaylasmith]

I was so devastated when she said she was gonna unravel it

[pinklotionplus]

Making this for my daughter. She loves it already and I'm not even done. Lol

[Xylia_kaylene]

I already finished it!!i already have 2 of these and I just work this for 3-4 hours and I really love it, my customers love it!!!tysm

[rosemcdonald]

I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on shorts if possible. I really want to make a pair of pants for a friend and if I can get the top part done the legs will be a breeze. I love all of your projects!

[AbigailBarnett-xdud]

Since I am only a freshman, and don't really like exposure, I'm sewing/ putting yarn across the front a little above the exposure so I feel a little more comfortable, I will post a short on my channel to show you what I mean, I don't post much, so it shouldn't be hard to find, I hoped this helped some of you who have the same problem I do (self conscience/ don't like being exposed)

❤ thank you for this video btw, I have been wanting to make these tops really bad ❤

Also to make it a bit easier and less time taking, for the bottom part where you single crochet back and forth, I ended up double crocheting because it made it faster for me, and easier.

Hope all this helped ❤

I just finished mine today! This tutorial was super easy to follow, though it took me WAY less than 1020 yds to make
