Crochet Top Patterns Frequently Asked Questions

Why crochet tops?

Crochet tops are the perfect way to add a splash of color and texture to your wardrobe! After making a comeback during the quarantine, the popular ’70s trend has reappeared in trends. If you need more convincing, crochet tops come in a variety of colors and patterns, and they’re unique because they’re handmade.

What’s the best yarn for crochet tops?

When it comes to summer tops, the right yarn weight is essential for creating an airy and cool crochet top. Many of these crochet top patterns are made with yarns ranging from superfine to worsted or medium-weight.

Because they are light and breathable, these yarns are ideal. Cotton-blend yarns and acrylic yarns are excellent choices for summer tops because they are soft, breathable, and long-lasting.

How much yarn does it take to crochet a top?
