Crochet babydoll top with sleeves tutorial

[@GrannyGaia]

⚠️ATTENTION⚠️ when you’re making the top part of the babydoll top, you have to stretch it when you’re trying it on as it needs to be a tight fit. The top part is supposed to be stretchy, so don’t worry, it will fit over your shoulders even if you make it tight! So sorry I forgot to add this😣😭 i explain this better in my first babydoll top tutorial: Crochet babydoll top & dress tutorial🎀 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pn2XZq2Mmq18rdU please watch at 06:29 if you’re confused! Materials: - 4 mm crochet hook - Number 2 / sport weight yarn (I used 240 grams for the short sleeve top, and 440 grams for the long sleeve top) - Stitch markers - Tape measure - Scissors - Yarn needle Time stamps 00:00 Intro 2:03 Materials 2:33 Babydoll top 22:25 How to mark sleeves 25:03 Short sleeves 50:54 Long sleeves 1:13:37 End of straight sleeve 1:12:50 Puff sleeves 1:26:08 Outro

[@peonysmoon]

First of all, this is such a great pattern, and im so grateful that you uploaded it on KZbin for everyone to follow. You make it so easy to follow and don't hide the stitches haha I am though confused on how to make the 2nd long sleeve. If I have to start on the same side as I did with my first, I end up going to the direction of my collarbone?? I also can't seem to flip it on my own to make it go right instead of left. How do I make it correct? Just start from the other side even though I shouldn't?

[@GrannyGaia]

Thank you!💜 I’m glad you found it helpful If you can’t flip it, starting on the other side shouldn’t be a problem

[@llaysleeminho2450]

Can I just leave the sleeves like how they were at 29:01 , I mean, would that be a problem making them too tight or too loose or anything? Great tutorial btw!! Explained everything so nicely, really easy to follow, thank you sooooo much!

[@GrannyGaia]

Yes, you can leave them to be just plain straps. You can make the chain shorter or longer depending on how tight you want it to be. I suggest trying it on to see if you like how it fits :) So glad you found my tutorial useful!💜🫶

Hi! Please check the description for amount of grams I used in grams 🫶 I like to just tie the ends of my working yarn and new yarn together and then weave in the ends later, but many people like the magic knot. You can search for tutorials on how to do the magic knot 💜 hope this helps!

Thanks alot for the great tutorial you did very well, keep going❤❤❤ I just wanna know how many of chains you started with for foundation chain, and how many rows you ended with exactly, I wanna know that so I can have the right size and not end up frogging the top as always, and I can tell that I should be having the same exact size as yours cuz we kinda have the same body shape And I will be waiting forward for every single crochet project you do on tiktok to share a tutorial of it with us🥺

Yes, you can use any yarn, just make sure to use the corresponding hook size. It’s a made to measure tutorial so as long as you follow your measurements and keep trying it on, it will fit your body

@@GrannyGaia Thank you

[@alexia1757]

Hey! This is a gorgeous pattern, I first saw the thin strap version, and I was wondering what to do, because I don't really wear those kinds of straps, but then I found this version! I'm thinking of making this for a friend, it is really pretty. I do have one question, how many yards, or meters, does one cake of your yarn have? It is a 4.9 ounce skein, isn't it? Edit: I forgot to ask, how many skeins/cakes did you use for the long sleeve version?

[@GrannyGaia]

I’m so glad!!💜 I’m sorry but my yarn label doesn’t provide metres/yardage info so I’m not sure 😅 but I included the grams for both the short and long sleeve version in the description 🫶

[@alexia1757]

@@GrannyGaia Hi! Thank you for taking the time to answer. I saw that you had written how much you used in the description afterwards, sorry about that 😅 the good news is I did work out that the yarn which I want to buy is #2 or sport, so I can go ahead and make approximately the same top(measurement-wise) as you did

[@ilikecheesecake5682]

not the creator but you can probably do SCs back and forth across the front of the top doing decreases when necessary so that it lies flat in order to make it have more coverage. personally I just made my chain shorter and pulled the top down in the back so it goes higher in the front
