Notes
  • This pattern includes a full video tutorial designed to clarify any techniques or steps that are better demonstrated visually than explained in writing.
  • You’ll start by crocheting two separate waistbands. Then, working directly onto the front waistband, you’ll build the left and right body panels and attach them to the back waistband. After that, seam the sides of the waistbands to form the body. To finish, work one round of half double crochet around the neckline and armholes for a clean edge.
  • The pattern includes instructions for customizing both the length of the top and the depth of the neckline.
  • This pattern uses intarsia crochet for the waistband. Intarsia crochet involves using separate yarn bobbins or small balls for each color block, ensuring that yarn is not carried across the back of the work. Follow the color chart carefully and manage yarn changes neatly to maintain a clean finish.
  • On the waistband you will be working with sc: when instructions say “(B) x 7” it means 1 sc in the next 7 sts with yarn B.
  • At the beginning of each row on the waistband ch 1 and turn.
  • Each size has a link to the “Progress Tracker” for the waistband for easy to follow instructions.
