Crochet Halter Top and Crop Top Patterns Frequently Asked Questions
Are crochet tops good for summer?
The short answer is yes! Crochet top patterns typically include lightweight yarns and sometimes looser stitches, making them very comfortable to wear in warmer weather. You can make crochet blouses, tank tops, crop tops, and halter tops from the patterns above!
What’s the best yarn for crochet summer tops?
Suggestions for the best yarn for summer tops:
- Cotton yarn — The number one choice I would recommend for summer crochet projects is cotton (or cotton blend). Cotton has the benefit of being lightweight, thin, and easy to work with. Unlike wool, which may irritate skin, cotton provides a breathable and light texture for wearables.
- Linen yarn — Another great choice for summer crochet is linen yarn. Linen yarns may cost a bit more, but they are a wonderful choice for summer wearables. They are a bit softer than cotton yarns, have a lovely sheen and drape, and may also be blended with silk. Linen is naturally moisture-resistant, too, which helps during those hot months.
- Acrylic yarn — Acrylic yarns are often a little scratchy, which is rather uncomfortable in the heat. Only some types of acrylic yarns are suitable for summer, so choose cautiously! If the acrylic is blended with a plant fiber, that is generally better, but there are still some pure acrylics that can work well.
What is the best yarn weight for crochet summer tops?
The first thing you want to choose is the size of the yarn. Avoid bulky yarns for these projects (size 5 and up), since those are designed to keep you warmer. Medium weight (aka worsted weight) yarn is probably the most popular size for summer projects, along with DK or sport weight yarn.
These sizes are thinner and perfect for the type of lacy or open-weave stitch patterns you would choose for summer projects.
How much yarn do I need for a crochet crop top?
Depending on the size and style you choose, most crochet crop tops require anywhere from 3-6 skeins of yarn. Larger sizes and more complex patterns use more yarn than simple tube top patterns in smaller sizes.
What kind of patterns are best for summer crochet?
Now that you have chosen your favorite yarns for summer projects, the fun begins when you can find summer crochet patterns. The best type of stitches for these projects will be open weave, lacy stitches.
Find patterns that have stitches which are ‘holey’ (with gaps). These types of open weave patterns will allow air to breathe through the wearable. They are also generally quicker to stitch up, which is a bonus when we don’t want heavy yarns on our lap during warm months.
How to wear crochet crop tops?
Crop tops are incredibly stylish, but with crochet, they make a stunning outfit! Crop tops are easy to style and can be worn regularly, as well. There are multiple ways to style a crochet crop top. Buttoned, peplum, tie-up, tank top, there are various crochet crop top patterns to choose from in this list.
How to wear crochet halter tops?
Halter necks have made a comeback from the 70s along with crochet. So how about wearing these two styles together? Halter tops are extraordinarily sexy and chic outfits giving you the ‘IT’ girl vibes.
You can go for a halter neck crochet top along with shorts, jeans or skirt and add on a layer for your vacation to hang out plans!
Are crochet tops in style this year?
If you loved the trend then, you’ll be delighted to know that it’s not going anywhere! Crochet tops are definitely still going to be part of our wardrobes in 2023, especially for summer.
