Is this Crochet Top Pattern for Beginners?
The Isla Fuego Festival Top crochet project is a great choice for advanced beginners looking for a new challenge.
Apart from basic stitches, the pattern employs some special techniques. The gorgeously looking wide bottom border is worked up with cross stitches. The cup edgings, in turn, use the picot method.
What Yarn Should I Use to Make This Top?
Before getting down to this crochet top project, make sure to use medium-weight yarn for the same spectacular results. This design is sure to look stunning in any color, so feel free to experiment with shade selection.
The designer chose Lily Sugar ‘n Cream, a 100% cotton yarn soft to the skin and easy to wash. If you want to use other yarns, Bernat Handicrafter Cotton Solids and Coats & Clark Crème de la Crème Solids are also great options.

Can I Wear This Top Without a Bra?
Yes! This top is designed to be worn solo. The cups are worked with dense stitches that offer the right amount of coverage for your bust, and the tie straps allow for a snug fit.
However, if you feel the need, you can of course add lining or cups for extra support. Watch this online tutorial to learn how to add the bra pads to your crochet top.
