That 70’s Granny Square Crop Top

That 70’s Crochet Along – Free Crochet Pattern

WHAT YOU WILL CROCHET

A cute 70’s themed crop top sporting not so traditional granny squares.

FINISHED SIZE

One size: 76 cm (30 inches) in diameter (around chest), 36 cm (14 inches) from shoulder to bottom rib, 58 cm (23 inches) from shoulder to cuff.  I used a light worsted DK yarn, so if you use a thicker yarn your finished measurements will be larger than mine.  The top was designed for my daughter who wears an adult XS.  Each square is 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4 inches).

CROCHET SKILL

Easy – basic crochet stitches are used in this design.  The pattern has helpful hints along the way which are highlighted.

HELPFUL TIPS & PATTERN NOTES

• My pattern uses US terminology.
• Always read through the pattern before you start to familiarise yourself with it.
• Colours are for reference only and will vary depending on the light settings of your monitor/devices.
• The pattern was designed in cotton but can be made in any yarn. Just remember to use the correct hook size for the yarn you have chosen.
• If you are working in thicker or thinner yarn your finished project size may vary.
• Tension and hook size could also influence the overall size.
• Secure starting ends as you go along.
• Stitch counts are at the end of each round/row, bold and in parentheses.
• When joining new yarn (other than for a colour change), use a slip stitch.
• And lastly, COUNT your stitches and have loads of FUN.
