Isn’t this such a cute top for Spring? The petal edge and the tie are so simple, yet so fun! For this top you will need a sport weight yarn with about 250 – 536 yards. It is written for sizes XS – 3X. The designer recommends a G/4.00mm hook.

This geometric top uses fingering weight yarn and an E/3.5mm hook. The yarn the designer used is Panduro Cotton. Sizes XS – 2X are listed in the pattern. It is worked from the top down.
The Ariel Top by Izabela Firlova
Sizes 30A through 50DD. This one is for all the girlies who wanted to be a mermaid when they were little! This top is crocheted out of fingering weight merino which would make it incredibly soft and breathable. You need between 361 – 492 yards and an E/3.5mm hook. The pattern includes written instructions, charts, and photos.
The Sun Soaked Top by Janine Myska
This incredible top is REVERSIBLE! How cool is that?? It is written for sizes XS – 5X. The original yarn it used is no longer available, but it was a merino/alpaca/silk blend in a sport weight. A good substitute would be Rowan Island Blend Fine. This top pattern is beginner friendly.
The Juniper Top from Spirit and Thread Crochet
I love the ruffles on this one! With a worsted weight yarn and a G/4.00mm and an I/5.5mm hook you can create a fun top to dress up or down. She doesn’t specify which yarn she used, but I always like cotton for crop tops. Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton would be a good choice for this one.
The Nami Top by Crochet with Alanna
This classic chevron top is made to measure so it isn’t written for any particular size. The designer specifies a fingering weight cotton – I like Hobbii Rainbow cotton. The Top section in made in 2 panels and the sleeves are crocheted in the round. There is minimal sewing involved. Yay!
The Boho Crop Top by Hands of Zeal
Such a classic look! This pattern is only written for 2 sizes due to how loose-fitting it is, however the designer does mention how it would be easy to increase the size by adding extra row(s) to the squares. Although it is available as a paid pattern you can find a free YouTube tutorial here. She uses Circulo Duna, which is an excellent DK cotton.
The Captiva Crop Top by Murphy Made Crochet
Written for 9 different bust sizes, you are sure to find your size! You will need between 690 and 1796 yards of fingering weight yarn to complete this project. The suggested hook size is E/3.5mm. The top is made of a seamless top-down construction starting with the circular yoke. It is described as being for advanced beginners.
The Bailey 4-in-1 Unisex Polo by Moon Baileys Crochet
Okay, so while this is technically not limited to a crop top, I had to include it because you can make a matching one for your pet!! I mean, come on, it doesn’t get any cuter than that! You can make this a crop, an oversized sweater, a vest, the possibilities are endless! It calls for about 130 – 650 grams of sport or DK yarn and a 3mm hook.
The Shelly Butterfly Top from Shyler Crochets
The pattern is available for free on YouTube here. If you prefer to purchase a written pattern, you can find that here. The top is for sizes S – 2X. The designer used Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton DK with an F/3.75mm hook. She also offers a dress version!
The Leila Tie Strap Crop Top by For The Frills
This top pattern is so dainty! The written instructions are available for free on the For the Frills Blog, or as a video tutorial on YouTube. The designer recommends using a cotton blend, maybe one like Lion Brand Coboo, to achieve a nice stretch. Comprised mostly of half double and double crochets, this one should work up well for a beginner!
Classic Bralette from TCDDIY
If you are looking more for a simple bralette than a crop top, the classic bralette from TCDDIY is the one for you! This top uses a small amount of worsted weight yarn. It would be a great project to use up some scrap yarn!
Boho Crochet Top from Crafty Mey
Using about 75 grams of yarn and an E/3.5mm hook, we can whip this bralette up in no time! I love the beads on this.
Sightseer Cropped Top by Lorene Haythorn Eppolite
This pattern is available for free on Cre8tion Crochet’s blog, or for purchase on Ravelry. The original worsted weight yarn is discontinued, but Red Heart Unforgettable would be perfect for this top. It is written for sizes XS – 5X and is a raglan top-down style.
Pineapple Lace Summer Halter Neck Top by Melissa Bjerregaard
Only one size, but adjustable. You need about 273 – 328 yards of a cotton DK, like Premier Cotton Sprout, and a G/4mm hook.
Crochet Crop Top and Skirt by Hey Carrie
This design is made to measure with a DK weight yarn such as Lion Brand Jeans. Using a G/4mm hook, front post double crochets are what creates this fun texture!

I’m totally in love with the edging on this top! This design uses a worsted weight yarn and an I/5.5mm hook. The yarn the designer chose was GarnStudios Drops.
Stacked Shells Crop Top by The Lavender Chair
Sizes XS through XL. You’ll need some DK weight yarn and a G/4.5mm hook. If you would prefer to purchase the PDF you can do so here.
Woodstock Weekend by DROPS Design
An adorable and classic granny square look! This was crocheted in Drops Safran cotton, which is a sport weight that comes in 45 different colors! The recommended hook size is E/3.5mm, but you can adjust depending on size. The pattern is written for XS – 3XL. There is also a conversion at the bottom to convert the entire pattern to British English instead of American English if you’d prefer.
