Crochet Pattern for Easy Shirt, Crop Top, Summer Sweater “Square Dance” – Languages: English / German

$6.48

(221 customer reviews)

You can adjust the length of the summer top to suit your requirements and make a slightly longer shirt or dress out of it.
The shirt combines a simple cut and a catchy pattern that is easy to remember. You can of course make the sleeves any length you want, e.g. a 3/4 or long-sleeved shirt.

The shirt consists of a front and back piece. After sewing them together, which is explained in great detail, the sleeves are crocheted on directly. There are no seams to be seen at the end and the sweater looks as if it has been crocheted in one piece.

  18. Verified Buyer

    The pattern was easy to follow, the instructions also made it easy to customize the size. I made mine one size larger than the largest size the pattern was written for, and I used a heavier weight yarn. All in all, for my first “mesh” crochet project, it turned out pretty decent!

    looks like an easy pattern. will be making it very soon.

  75. Kris

    Great pattern, very easy to follow! I thought the pictures were very detailed and helped me navigate the trickier parts of the pattern like the assembly. Overall the pattern is upper beginner friendly though the assembly may take some more time and experience. I used Katia Puro Coton yarn for this. It’s so comfy yet chic and perfect for summer. My favorite part of this pattern was how easy it was to get into the rhythm – perfect for relaxing at night after work! I loved making it so much that I’m currently modifying the pattern to make it into a maxi dress. Will definitely shop here for patterns again.

  158. Verified Buyer

    Very happy with this pattern!

  159. Anne

    I’m very pleased with how this turned out. I had one or two challenges with the project:
    -getting the tension and sizing correct without making the squares a lot smaller,
    -adjusting the neckline because I used a different number of stitches
    -sourcing suitable yarn – I couldn’t get anything with stretch so I had to use a cotton/ acrylic mix

    The seller was really helpful. She replied to my queries promptly and gave me good advice.

    The project wasn’t as quick as I hoped but I’m not a fast crocheter.

    Overall I’m pleased with how it’s turned out and highly recommend the Seller.
