the FIRST crochet top you should make as a beginner! | in-depth tutorial *read description first*

Important info!! So 15" seems to be too much to take off of your bust measurement, especially if you have a larger bust size than I do. I think due to the yarn I was using, it made the project grow more so than it normally would. I would instead suggest taking off 10" instead of 15". When I measured my top at the end (after wearing) it was 21.5" long whereas my bust size is 31.5 -32" so it seems my project "grew/stretched" about 5".

If you're using the exact yarn I'm using, be aware that it grows quite a bit. So 15" still may be the right call for your project.

This is for all my beginner crocheters out there! I made this in-depth tutorial to hopefully help you out with constructing your first crochet top. It's fairly simple and includes all beginner-friendly stitches. Hope you enjoy ! xx
