Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these detailed instructions to create your own Boho Chic Crochet Crop Top:

1. Foundation Chain: Start by making a foundation chain that fits comfortably around your bust measurement. Ensure that the chain is not too tight, as you will be joining it into a circle. Once you have your desired length, join the last chain to the first chain with a slip stitch to form a circle.
2. Round 1: Chain 4 (this counts as 1 double crochet (dc) and 1 chain (ch)). Now, *skip 1 chain, and make 1 dc in the next chain, then ch 1*. Repeat from * to * around the circle. Once you reach the end, join with a slip stitch to the 3rd chain of the beginning ch-4.
3. Round 2: Slip stitch into the first ch-1 space to start. Chain 3 (this counts as 1 dc), and then make 2 dc in the same ch-1 space. Now, *ch 1, and make 3 dc in the next ch-1 space*. Repeat from * to * around the circle. When you finish, join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning ch-3.
4. Continue Rounds: Repeat Round 2 until your piece measures the desired length from your bust to the hem of the top. Make sure to check your measurements as you go to ensure a perfect fit.
5. Creating the Straps: To make the straps, attach your yarn to the top edge of the front of the crop top. Chain 50 (or your desired strap length), then attach the other end to the back edge of the top using a slip stitch. Repeat this step for the second strap, ensuring both straps are of equal length.
6. Finishing Touches: Once you have completed the straps, fasten off your yarn and weave in all loose ends using a yarn needle. This will give your crop top a clean and polished look.
