The popularity of crochet crop tops grew a lot lately, making them a closet staple for the summer. Whether you prefer a bohemian look with fringe and openwork, or a sleek and minimalist design, there is a crochet crop top pattern for you. They can be as simple or intricate as you like, offering endless possibilities for creativity. What’s more, they are lightweight and breathable – simply perfect for summer.

Types of Crochet Crop Tops

Although all crochet crop tops feature shortened body, many styles offer unique look and different level of coverage.

Basic crochet crop top patterns are simple and straightforward – perfect for beginners. Their length is easily customizable, as they use basic techniques and repeatable stitches. Crochet halter tops are perfect for summer, because they typically tie around the neck and back. This construction provides a comfortable and adjustable fit.

Oversized and off-the-shoulder crop tops offer wider body, perfect for casual meetings or beach days. They often feature openwork and lacy stitch patterns, becoming the epitome of lightness and breezy style. 

Crochet bralettes are the absolute hit of summer festival fashion. These snug-fitting crop tops are much shorter and decorative than regular ones. You can wear them alone or layered under sheer tops or dresses. Both bralette patterns and boho crop tops can include decorative elements, such as fringe, tassels and other embellishments.

Lightweight and Breathable

The choice of yarn is crucial when creating wearable crochet. You may be wondering what yarn is best for crochet crop top? When making a top, opt for natural, breathable and lightweight fibers, such as cotton, bamboo or linen. 

The most common choice, cotton, is often the most affordable one. It’s easy to care for and available in a wide range of colors. Bamboo yarn is very soft, smooth, and drapes excellently. Linen, on the other hand, has a beautiful textured look and gets softer with each wash. 

Sustainable and Easy to Customize

You can easily adjust the length, fit and details of crochet crop top to suit your personal style and body type. Experiment with different yarns, colors, and stitch patterns to create a one-of-a-kind garment. Adding embellishments such as fringe, tassels, or beads can also give your top a unique touch.

The cropped body requires less yarn, which makes crochet crop tops perfect for stash-busting. Using up leftover yarn is not only sustainable, but also results in unexpected and unique color combinations.
