If you’ve been looking for a crochet summer top pattern that actually looks as good finished as it does in the photos, this is it. The Shelly Top has that relaxed, breezy fit that still looks pulled-together, with a deep V-neck front, an open tie-back, and a pretty, breezy fan stitch texture.
The two-tone colorwork, a soft blue body with a dusty rose trim at the sleeves and hem, gives it that detail that makes people ask where you bought it. It sits just at the waistband, so it pairs perfectly with jeans or linen pants and feels comfortable all day. You’ll want to wear this one all summer.
The pattern is written in standard American terms and comes in four sizes (S, M, L, XL), so it’s adaptable for a lot of different fits. It’s rated easy, and there are step-by-step videos and detailed photos included, so you’re not left guessing at any point.
Yarn requirements are listed clearly by size, and the pattern was made using DMC ECO Vita DK weight yarn with a 4mm or 4.5mm hook depending on your size. The instructions are available in English, Italian, Spanish, and French, which is a nice touch if you’re buying for a friend or crocheting alongside someone who speaks another language.
