Who Can Make This Crochet Top?
If you’re new to crochet and you haven’t yet completed any wearable projects, this crochet tank top pattern is for you. It features double crochet stitches and a straightforward construction, which makes it very beginner-friendly.
There is no complex detailing except for the ribbed hem that you will work with front and back post double crochets. Don’t worry if you don’t know them. The designer offers an easy-to-follow video tutorial to help you walk through the whole pattern.
Materials You’ll Need for the Sea Breeze Tank
The pattern calls for cotton DK yarn and a 4.5 mm hook, ensuring a soft, lightweight finish perfect for those hot summer days. You can go for Debbie Bliss Cotton Denim DK, which is the same yarn that has been used for the original design or choose any other yarn you like. Just make sure it meets the required gauge!
How This Crochet Tank Comes Together
This crochet tank top features a comfy relaxed fit, a deep feminine V-neck, and a nice ribbed hem. The garment consists of two identical panels using the top-down construction method. Given that, you will start by crocheting the straps and finish at the bottom.
The straps are crocheted by adding increases to every row. Then you will continue to work up the bodice. Once you have both panels ready, join them down the sides and over the straps.
For visual guidance, watch the video tutorial from Grace.
Is This Pattern Available in Multiple Sizes?
The Sea Breeze Tank Top Pattern is available in sizes from XS through 3X to provide a comfortable fit for every body type. The number of stitches required for each size is listed in brackets. If you’re not sure which size will fit you better, the designer recommends sizing down, as the top has a deep V-neck and a loose fit.
