[@asielacosta7880]

just finished this one, my first eve top and i love it!! i also instead of what she did on the sides, i tied it kind of like a shoelace to adjust the sizes, and it looks amazing😄

[@lunaticalix]

After many tries, failed attempts and calculations, I'll tell you how to increase the size. If u want to increase the horizontal length, add 3 chains. For example 53ch+ 3ch+.... The chains u add must come in 2times of the chains u made because it is fundamental for the squares you'll do later. So, 53chs+6chs. And for the squares, the numbers of squares must come in odd numbers. like 17, 19 etc. because it's for the heart pattern you'll do. Hope it helps :)

[@janiesdaisies]

thanks for writing this out! i also have the equation in my written pattern for anyone wondering

[@noa_rg]

i just finished it and I'm so so happy with how it turned out!! Instead of tying the sides together i made the top a bit wider so I could sew them and it looks adorable!! It's the first crochet top I finish that actually fits me right so I'm kinda proud of myself 🤭

[@lovewithluu]

your pattern was one of the most easiest things to follow along with, thank you for that!! this is gonna be my first project, I am a beginner and have only been doing granny squares and I think I am ready to try and venture off to something new. BTW yours came out so cute!!

Me too. First project. I'm on row 2 of the ❤

[@shanimeyer8794]

such an awesome and easy to follow pattern! i altered it a little bit by adding an extra row to the humps of the heart and i made side panels for the vest, and your instructions were so helpful. i hope to make this pattern with different designs filled in :3

[@iamsuchawitch]

Just used this pattern to make a top for a concert! Was super easy to follow even made my own adjustments to make it a full mesh top all around, with an asymmetrical single strap look. ❤

[@janiesdaisies]

exciting!!!! ty for following my tutorials, this is the biggest honor omg 🥰

[@FalishaxWasxHere]

I made this! I liked following your written pattern! Instead of ties, I made a really long chain and used that to corset the sides together. Soo super duper cute!! I love it

[@royalqueenks5640]

That sounds like a great idea! How exactly did you go about doing that??

[@aj7887]

I love the idea and it seems super easy to follow, but I wear M/L/XL tops typically and unfortunately even with the sizing up tips it still wouldn't fit comfortably : ( I chained 104 for the front panel, but idk how I'd do the heart then without it looking awkward

[@Poppyfreya]

If ur chaining 104 just try doubling the pattern instead that might help bc that will double the size of the heart too🥰

[@lilymarshall7706]

I increased the measurements for mine also. I learned that it needs to end in either a 6 or 3. For example mine is 66 chains so then the boxes are even and have two skips in between without any chains left over on the ends. And I just kept the heart the same size.

[@fermi-dirac]

this was reallyyyy tight on me. i'm a bra size 38. i suggest doing a longer chain and more mesh stitches if you're big chested and plan on making this. other than that, it was an excellent tutorial! i should probably just be more aware of sizing, lol

hi! any update? can you let me know how many chains you made

[@emilyyyyyyyyyyyyys]

Yaaay I’m gonna make this in purple

[@acelapes]

maybe this is sort of a begginer's question but when double crocheting, should I roll the yarn from behind the needle to the front, instead of from the front to behind? janie almost did this at 5:15, but then i guess she corrected herself

[@alyssadahlke8074]

the direction you yarn over doesn’t really matter, but i suggest to go in the same direction that she does or whichever feels more natural

[@luciataylor8068]

please make one of this with a star instead of a heart! I don't know if thats even possible but it'd be SO COOL

[@amyclark3955]

PART ONE 1)Chain 53 2)Single crochet 52 (hook into 2nd chain) 3) start front panel, start each mesh row by chaining 5, skip two and then double crochet into the next stitch. 4)chain 2, skip 2 and dc into the next stitch, continue this for the row 5) if you use this exact, it will have 17 rows across/ 17 squares, 6)continue this process until the first row is done 7)on the last square, do the same, to start the next row, chain 5 to start a new row, and skip 2 and double crochet in, then continue making Norma squares- chain 2, skip 2, double crochet into it. 8) she did 5 rows, so as many as you want for the length 9) now we start the heart (4:30) 10) whatever row you are on, chain 5 skip 2 dc into, then continue and chain 2, skip 2 until you have 8 squares (4;55) 11) you should be in the middle of your work, now we fill in this square to make the point of the heart, 12) to fill in the square you are going to double crochet 2 times in the middle of the square, and then make one more so it is the “piller”, 13) for the rest of the row, mirror the other side and make 8 squares again 14) (5:56) chain 5, skip 2 dc, make 7 squares in total (think like a grid to help you) 15) fill in 3 squares and make sure that you are aligned with the previous row, (9 dc) 16) make 7 more squares, crochet 2, skip 2, dc 17) row 9- 6 mesh squares, chain 5, skip 2, dc, then chain 2, skip 2 and dc, now fill in 5 squares in the middle, dc , (15 total) 18) next do 6 mesh squares, mirror the other side 19) make 5 mesh squares, then chain 1, skip one chain and then chain into the next stitch to fill in half a square, next dc 18x 20) once you are on the 18 dc, it will make half a square, chain 1, skip one and then make 5 mesh squares and it should mirror the other side) (9:30 ish)

[@amyclark3955]

PART 2- Starting at 9:41- 1) For row 11, repeat the same steps as in the last row, 2) Row 12 fill in 5 squares in the middle, so 6 mesh squares, and fill in 15 dc, 3) row 13 - leave one square open in the middle, 10:23- I recommend watching for this one part, make sure everything is aligned, it is also very complicated to write out and I don’t want it wrong! Done with the heart! 4) row 14- 16 make mesh rows (11:40 for what it looks like)

[@amyclark3955]

STRAPS - 1) for the first strap, stay attached to the panel, (11:55) 1.5) chain 2 skip 2, double crochet, make a sloped part for the sleeve so it curves in, chain 2 skip 2, make 3 mesh squares. 2) chain 1, skip 2 and double crochet to make the other side of the strap slope for your neck, 3) turn your work, chain 2, skip one and dc, makethree squares, 4) row three flip work, 2 mesh squares, chain 5 skip two, dc, 2 chain, skip 2 and dc. Start sloping chain 1- skip 2 , dc, chain 2, skip 1, dc, mesh 2 squares, 5) 4 rows should be done, rows 5-10, make it adjusted to your body, and make three mesh squares in each, tie off and work on next strap, 6) only difference is you tie on your string and start in the corner peice 7) go to the time 14:39 and she has written out the whole pattern for the other arm, now you should have the front panel and sleeve thingys done

[@amyclark3955]

Now the back- super easy mesh stitches, - chain 53. Sc 52, go into 2nd from hook, Make 16 rows of mesh squares with 17 mesh squares across. (Chain 2, skip 2, dc) (pattern at 16:05) Watch the last minute I’m sorry I’m so tired from writing it out, instructions are at 16:42, written out, Assembly at 16:56 hope this is good!!
