I watched this video about 6 months ago and have probably made at least 15 tops of various patterns since then. Before this video, I only knew how to crochet blankets and hats. This was the BEST tutorial! Thank you so much!
That top is beautiful ! I can’t wait to try and make one I’m sorry I don’t know if I miss something, but how do you make the V in front thank you for your help Crochet friend Sue
Wow that's awesome I only make hats and blankets and I want to try this I am not a medium so a bit scary because I don't know how many changes but I will measure my bust and try from there 😮
Oh my God, I could just cry. I am so glad I found your channel. I am totally blind and I’ve had a really really hard time finding a RUclipsr who is as descriptive as you are when it comes to crocheting garment pieces. I love making blankets and scarves. But have had very limited success when it comes to Tops and sweaters because other RUclipsrs are not as descriptive or as thorough as you are. again, thank you so much for all of your time effort and energy that you put in to your videos.❤️❤️🦋🦋
@@CraftyYarnOwlwithDarla when it comes to the size of the of the top I need ( which is a 3x by the way) how would I measure how many rows I will need to for the back and how many I will need for the front? Is there a formula for the neck line for the different sizes?
Love your sweater! Very figure flatering. Using cotton will make it cooler in warmer months. Can't believe it was made in one piece! You really did a great job!
Hi Darla, thank you for the tutorial for this pretty top. I wanted it a little longer and wider and I was able to complete the top with a starting chain of 176 and 14 rows on each side. (Total of 29 rows) Love it! Thanks again, Nancy
@@Patriotic57 Carolyn, I am a medium. I wanted to wear a shirt under it and wanted a little more room. I don't design clothes so I can't really say. But I like how it fits.
I saw this top in Pamela's video and thought I have to make that. I did and I'm in love. I added sleeves and it's perfect. I'm already starting on my second one. Thank you!
I have been looking for this pattern for years. I had a vest pattern exactly like this but it had a ribbed border. And it was just double crochet. Thanks for posting. I also have been looking for summer tops like this also.
Darla, I really love this pattern, V-Sts are one of my favorites. At 89, I'm very "fluffy' & hard to fit, but by crocheting side-to-side fits much better. Using V-Sts as you've done, working side-to-side, I was able to make one piece cardigan & a vest that fit, with only shoulder seams to sew. Thanks for inspiring us & for all of your beautiful work.🥰 MaryLewis
4 strawberry and one off white. I would love to go to Hawaii or Australia. ❤ thank you so much.❤ good luck to everyone . And have a great birthday. Happy Birthdat❤
just started this today! can't wait to wear it! i found if you do the foundation row in your base chain through the back bump you have an area that looks finished and could add sleeves if you like
Darla, thank you for teaching us how to make this gorgeous top! This will be my first top to make. I Love & Appreciate the fact you made it in one piece! I will certainly give this a try! Have a wonderful rest of your week! Many Blessings & Much love sent from Florida xo
I like the style and that it isn't so see through.Bravo this is excellent and so close to what a knit top would look like. Congratulations! From Michigan Deborah
I saw the top on Pamela’s channel.. I’ve never made a top before but I’m definitely going to try to make this top.. thank you for the tutorial..awesome top..😎
This is one of the easiest things to make, ever. Thanks so much for this tutorial! I just finished mine today as a Fall weather piece with Lion Brand Landscapes yarn... I loooove it!
@@CraftyYarnOwlwithDarla I would love to but I don't have Facebook. I have Instagram though. Are you on there? I never checked. I'm new to your channel and so happy I found it 💛
Hi Darla, thank you for your beautiful tutorial on the magnificent top. You make it so easy to follow. I have the big cakes yarn, and you're right, it's only taking me 2 days to make. Keep on making more videos like this one. I've subscribed.
I love it! I am definitely making this once I find the perfect yarn. Saving it to my playlist for later. I'll probably be making it longer for a pool cover up.
This was a good video, as it’s the type of top I want to try. Could I ask a favor? My brain works in a weird way! Can you draw a rough diagram of the garment, as pieces that come together. I have trouble picturing where I am as you crochet. Anyway, thanks for all your work. 😊
Ohhh Darla this is so pretty and looks fabulous on you 💕💕 I love the color choises and the stitches 🎉 Thank you for sharing, hope you have been keeping well. 💗 Have a beautiful night, Sending lots of love 💕
@@CraftyYarnOwlwithDarla Your welcome 🤗 I am so happy to hear your doing well during this uneasy time. I have been doing well and only stepping out every 2 weeks for grocery stocking.
I don't know how you did it but this is so beautiful. I love it. Definitely going to save this and share it on pinterest. I wondered how you got the colors to work so perfectly, and you made it seem so easy to do too. Thank you so much. 💕
Sounds great! Thank you! 💞 This is my Facebook group, if you'd like to join & share a picture. facebook.com/groups/201803318374244/?ref=share_group_link
Love your top! How do we know how many chains for different size tops? Im a size LARGE/XLARGE. I’m new to making clothing. Appreciate any guidance. Do you have a written pattern For this?
Hi! Put the same amount of single crochets around each arm hole and keep crocheting sc or dc, etc (the stitch you want is your personal choice), to make sleeves as long as you want. If you want to use the same stitch as in the body, make sure your single crochets are divisible by 3. I hope this helps 💕
That's awesome Darla! I am not a fast crocheter either. I did save and made a playlist just for this video, so this will help others find your channel as well. Good job!
Hi Sis! 💞 I don't think this one can be made into a cold shoulder, but I do have other one piece tops in my crochet tutorial playlist that are. As for sleeves... I'm recording a tutorial for a new design now, that I'll post this coming week, that has sleeves. You'll be able to learn from it how to add sleeves onto this one 💞
I love this top! I'm trying it now. I wish I were the same size as you. It would make it so much easier! I've made 2 articles of clothing for me in the past two weeks and one is too tight and the other fits, but a little tighter than I'd like it to be. Hopefully this one will fit. I added 3 rows to the first side, and I'm halfway done with the second side so far.
