Is This a Beginner-Friendly Pattern?
Don’t worry if you’re a beginner, this crochet top pattern is super easy to tackle. Knowledge of basic stitches like chain, single crochet, and double crochet is what you need to make it.
You shouldn’t feel intimidated by its multicolored design either. Tie your yarn scraps together before you begin and keep all the colorwork away!
What You’ll Need to Recreate the Look
This crochet crop top can be made entirely from leftover yarn. This makes it an eco-friendly choice that allows you to reduce waste while creating a fashionable garment.
Got some odd scraps from old projects in every color imaginable? Perfect! The more colors, the better the end result will be. What you need to do next is combine your leftover yarn into one big colorful skein and have fun with it.
However, if you would like to use a specific yarn for making this Miu Miu Style Top, try Hobbii Friends Cotton 8/4. Otherwise, you can go for any other fingering-weight yarn paired with a 3 mm crochet hook.
How to Crochet This Crop Top
Before you start crocheting this cropped halter top, measure the fullest part of your chest to get the best fit. The number of stitches in your foundation row will depend on your size.
After that, you will continue working the same number of double crochets until the fabric reaches the middle of your bust. From there, you need to gradually decrease stitches to shape the neckline.
The final steps include working up the back parts and ties.
Can I Adjust the Length of This Top?
The Miu Miu Style Top is very simple to modify. If you’re not particularly fond of super short cuts, you can easily make this garment longer. To do so, simply repeat the double crochet rows as many times as you need. Just make sure to add them before the decreasing section.
