Materials & Yarn Suggestions
Depending on the size, you will need 361-804 yards of DK yarn for this handmade halter top. The designer suggests using Knitcraft by Hobbycraft Cotton Blend Plain, but any other lightweight cotton yarn will be great too – just make sure it meets the required gauge. The pattern also calls for a 4 mm crochet hook.
Stitches You’ll Use in This Pattern
The Summer Halter Crop Top pattern is very easy to work which means it will suit beginners and intermediates alike. You need nothing more than a basic set of stitches to craft it.
The bust part is made with single crochets to give it a nice, dense texture with modest coverage. The bottom section, on the other hand, is worked with a simple combination of chains, double crochet, and half double crochet stitches.
The designer included step-by-step photo instructions to make sure those new to crochet can create their own halter top.
Are There Plus-Size Adjustments for This Pattern?
The pattern offers instructions for Small, Medium, and Large sizes. Use brackets to follow the required number of stitches for your size. If you want to adjust the size of the cup, you can do it by repeating stitches several times in each row.
