Beginner here and this was the first project i took on. I made this top by reading the captions at the parts where the audio was cut off while also cross referencing with the written pattern on the website. No issues for the body, however i do recommend that for those who never made a crochet cup before go and watch a tutorial for that, then come back here for the laced edges. Cup tutorials also will teach you how to properly size the cup so I find that helped alot cuz 11 chains were way too many for my size. For a size small (maybe xtra small?) i used under 100g of 8ply milk yarn for the whole project. Followed the tutorial's measurements exactly (86 chains for the body and 11 chains for the cups) but adjusted for the straps. I did 150 chains for each neck strap (folded in half would be the length of 75 chains which was enough for me to tie comfortably). For the back i decided to do one long chain of 250 and laced it (crisscross weaving in the chain on the holes of the body piece), I'd say you'd still get away with 200 chains depending on the size of your waist. For the front tie, i made a chain of 100 and attached tassles on the ends. Do note that leaving a gap of 3-ish stitches between the cups might help if your chest is smaller (instead of sewing them right next to each other). Overall this was a great first project and I hope anyone who wants to make it doesnt get discouraged from how intricate the finished design looks. I also hope this helps anyone facing issues with the tutorial. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk. :)

Thank you. I’m a bit disappointed with having to seam these pieces all together. There are many halter crop bralette patterns that crochet continuously which make it much easier for the beginner. All in all this pattern turned out well Thanks for the advice!

I never crocheted a full project before, always just did chains and like maybe a square, but never a full project. This top was my attempt at doing a full on crochet project and it turned out amazing! The explanations were so detailed and simple to understand!

BEST BIKINI PATTERN I DID SO FAR! THANK YOU! Good Music in the backround, good voice, short instruction & so clear.

Perfect pattern excellent teacher ! I customized mine a little by creating the cups first & extending on one side, connecting with a double crochet & working the body portion downward!! Thanks for sharing!

@@loveavah9402 sry i didn't notice your comment. Well in 12:10 you can see how to join them. You could use a regular yarn needle and sew them to that lace part or join them with slip stitches as I did. Pretty simple🌹

You are so clear when giving instructions, this is the first video that I am not lost in the first 10 sec 🥳🥳 The first project that came out great 🥰🥰 it only took 3 hour.

Ive made more than 12 crochet croptop like this for my friends they really love it 😍😍😍😍one of my favourite crochet crop top

As a knitter, I’ve always been crochet curious. I just had surgery to get some teeth out...and I could listen to your tutorial for hours. Very straight forward, very calming music (and accent.) Lovely pattern.

I really enjoyed making this top. I made my cups in double crochet and added the bottom part to them by using a chain of 110 and a 2.75mm hook. It worked out beautifully. Thanks so much for sharing your video and written pattern. Love it ❤️

I made it and it turned out FABULOUS! Thanks :)

I'm doing this, it's a beautiful project and once you do it once you can modify it, if you want it longer and stuff you just add more rows of single crochets... really nicely explained.

Is it just me or does the sound go off and on?

I just finished this in black and let me tell you--- I'm in love. My first ever top! My only wish is that there was further description on how to attach the strings but I figured out something that worked for me. Thanks for the lovely tutorial!

Can’t wait to make this! Beautiful. Thank you ❤️

Just finished making this beautiful top. I used a fingering weight yarn adjusting according to my measurements. It turned out so lovely that I'm now making a second. Thank you Hey Carrie!

This is a gorgeous piece. Thank you for the tutorial. A bottom piece would be fantastic to go along with this crop top. Many blessings!

Amazing design and so easy to follow! Turned out great and my friend will love it! Thank you SO much!!

Hi, how can I customize the body part? Like if I want to take the band way behind my back and put a button instead of strands? How many chains should I start with? Odd number or even number?

i know this is old but in your pattern i suggest writing "3rd stitch from chain" etc because i kept getting confused when it just said "next stitch"

This took me 2 days to make. I spent so many hours on it but it turned out great and was simple and easy to do. Thanks for the tutorial!

Thanks for the pattern. Please note the cups and lace bottom are crocheted with two strands and the edging around cups and straps are crocheted with one strand. Also, watch other videos for tips on how to make the lace part of the top without sewing. You can chain 10-15 at edge of cup, then slip stitch across the cups, then chain 10-15 again, then SC across.

I loved this

This is so beautiful and very easy to understand, thank you so much for sharing! 🤩 I do wish I could see the finished top with all of the straps though, and how it is to be worn. I did 300 chains folded in half for each cup strap and it just seems insanely long. And once there are 4 straps connected to the back, is it supposed to be tied into a bow?

going too try try this for my daughter. I hope I can do it 🤞 lovely pattern.😍

Does anyone know how many more to add to the original chain to make the bottom part longer? I’m making it for someone who is quite broad round the ribs. thank you!

Amazing.

great pattern, i finished it in a day. though it is not my size i dont want to take it apart, so i will be making another one(:

I plan on making this for my friend who is quite busy. Any advice before I get started so I can make sure I can make the cups big enough and supportive? Thank you!

I got confused when it came to making the cups.... not sure where I'm going wrong 😕

The audio cuts out a couple times but if you use the captions it’s easy to follow. I finished mine with two days of work and it’s beautiful.

i didnt quite understand what she meant at the end (after attaching the cups) about the straps. can someone please help?

cant fully understand the pattern for the cups

Very beautiful

Eso esta bello pero Bello quizá un poquito mas de producción en la grabación pero por lo demas hermoso! 👌

Good job

This is gorgeous. I don't understand if on both cups I'm supposed to make a chain and double it and tie it to the top of the cup? Also for the back tie, where does it start and how does it tie? I looked at the pattern, it's not there either. I want to make this so bad! I already have the yarn, caron simply soft! thank you for creating something so beautiful!

For the neck strap I just made a chain of 300. I folded that in half. Then I find the single crochet at the top of the cup and pulled the chain through that. Then I made another chain of 300 for the other cup and did the same thing. For the back I just attached yarn to any corner of the bottom part of top and made long chain. Repeat that for the other side. Hope that helps

I just did your tutorial, it turned out beautiful, but unfortunately the down part (so not the cups) was too big for me... When i tried to narrow it with the knot, i didn't just tie the straps, but the down part too, and it didn't look well, had a big bump in my back, else it was too lose. I want to try it again, but i know i can't lower the chain numbers simply, because of the pattern. Also I'm a beginner, so i don't know how to count, how many chains should i have in the first part? Could you help me please?

If I wanted to make the body/band part longer, What are the multiples I need to do that? Thank you so much ❤️

instead of using a double wool can i use a bigger one doing just one wool?

Hi Carrie, I think maybe due to the copyright of the music, the audio is muted shortly after I played the video. It is a pity since you have mentioned several tips for making this beautiful pieces and they are for sure very helpful for beginners.

it is fully customizable. The more rows you do for the cups the bigger they are. Just make what ever number of rows you need to cover your breasts.

Hello I really want to use your recommendations. However I find the holes extremely large with a 5mm I almost never used this hook fir this project. How can I still make gauge. If I were to go down to a 3 or 3.5. I’m Ready can yiu recommend how yiu avoid those huge holes. Thanks so much.

Hey Carrie, I have made this beautiful top ,but I don't really love the part of sewing. I made it last year and now I want to end it. I started sewing, but I don't like it looks. Can you tell me the way you see it? Thanks a lot I'm also making the alien top now,so it would be very helpful. I make the crop top without sewing. Very easy for me as beginner.

Could I make the bottom part directly on the 2 cubs, not making them separate, with sewing at the end?

What cup size is this for? Do you have a photo of someone wearing it?
