Yaassss girlllll please keep them coming!! NO ONE has plus size crochet tutorials! I was about to start my own damn channel just to help some sisters out! I’m ALWAYS looking for good patterns that suit my thickness well! Thank you!!

[@JamGabriel]

Omg thank you!!!

[@RowanWiccae]

Make the channel anyway. We still need more plus size like this one!!!

[@kaytedavis8297]

@@RowanWiccae lol if I had the courage to be on camera I would!! 😂. I’m thinking about it though. Because I’ve been making some CUTE shit

[@studykenny]

thank you, i have what is considered a sporty frame with my ribs but a large chest that makes other patterns impossible for me to wear. this has made my day!

[@JamGabriel]

Thank you

[@EmL-kg5gn]

Thank you!!!! I’m not plus size but I have a really large bust size so none of the patterns I’d seen before worked for me. I think I can combine parts of your patterns with parts of smaller ones to make ones that fit me! I’ve honestly been really sad about not being able to make cute tops for myself and I’m not experienced enough to make my own clothing patterns from scratch yet so this really made my day 🌼

[@twilightsdawningpalladino9997]

I love this!! I'm confused about how it is supposed to be tied/attached in the back. Could you perhaps upload a short video showing how to put this on and tie it?

I have crochet that too 3 times already and it’s amazing! Thank you for plus size pattern ❤️❤️ would love more

[@deloriskornya6725]

Oh my goodness! 30 seconds, into your video, I noticed your stitch marker! I have tiny piercing holes,in my earlobes. I have lots of hoop earrings, that were gifts, that I can’t wear, because the bar is too wide, to fit in my ears. Oh my goodness, I have used lever back earrings, for stitch markers, for years, but never thought of using the hoops! Yay! Thank you! I can’t wait to try them out! Now to watch the video. As a DD, I am anxious to see how you make your top. I want to surprise my daughter(DDD) with one, for all the help she has done for me, the past few months. Happy hooking! 💖

[@gabrielaalvarezperez6913]

Keep working on this, I've been trying to look for patterns for plus sizes, that could fit nice on me. I've modified some normal patterns, but seeing a channel that is dedicated to this is amazing 👏 it will take time to get more people, but keep working on this, your videos are really good.

[@JamGabriel]

Hi! Thank you. Will upload new tutorial soon 😘💖

[@JamGabriel]

Thank you! Will upload a new video today 💖

[@mom4monkeys]

Thank you. I just finished one for 1 of my daughters. I just added a few more rows around the sides because she didn’t want it to be a complete open back.

[@dicassiopeia2265]

I always think crochet is not for plus size because I just saw they do it for a slim body. sometimes it makes me feel bad for my body. That's why I really love this video and thank you so much to do it

[@JamGabriel]

That was my mindset too. But nope 😂 it's for everybody 🥰

[@aimsters18]

Hi! I just wanna say thank you so much for uploading this! I’m trying this with medium 4 weight red heart yarn because it’s what I had. I think it may end up turning out a little bigger, but hopefully it’ll still fit me. I hope you continue to upload more videos!

I love how detailed this was, I struggled with the band a little but I got it done. I'm just kinda confused on how do you tie it?

[@aminataylor6137]

Omg I have the same question

[@JamGabriel]

You have to tie it like a corset

Love this! But how do you attach the straps? I’m lost with this part

[@JamGabriel]

You have to tie it like a corset. On the band part where we skip few stitches, it will serve as the holes for corset

[@juanruth7046]

Thanks 4 sharing ma'am 😘 God bless you always

[@arynsmith4838]

I made one for my wife as a gift and other people want one so I was wondering if selling them is okay? Totally cool if not I just don’t wanna do it without asking

Hi! Feel free to sell tops you created using this pattern. I would love to see them too ❤

[@Crickiepoohlala]

I love the top and tutorial looks easy to follow but I feel like I missed something, how do you connect the band at bottom going around waist?

[@victoriacreed7952]

I absolutely LOVE this and the fact you're making crochet tutorials for plus sizes i was so downtrodden there isnt much out there, do you have an idea on how many chains i'd have to do for a DDD or F cup? i know the tutorial is for a DD but im a little larger than that, im thinking 20 or maybe 22? with a few more rows

[@JamGabriel]

Thank you! I think you can go for 20 chains for DDD cup. Coz sometimes yarns stretches a bit. Tho it will still depend on the yarn you will use.

[@ehlaytiomers]

Ang galing! Idol ko po kayo 🤍

What are the measurements for this? Like what measurements would this fit (bust and under bust wise)? Because my bust is GIANT and I have yet to find someone that makes a tutorial for as big of a bust as I have.

what size would you recommend i chrochet for a 34 F bra

[@JamGabriel]

thank you! new video is up :)

[@mwendapoleee]

The problem is here the cup is wonderful but i need after the cups something elastic or wire like in bras to keep everything in place!

[@maggiecritchley7282]

I have many unused earrings to use as stitch markers. Thanks.

[@JamGabriel]

Hoop earrings are the best stitch markers! ❤

[@merlemcdonald2397]

Or maybe cotton thread instead, and make the back wider, haven't try yet but just an idea 😂😂

Hi! About how much yarn do I need for this top? Wait 😍 will you share the name of the yarn you used?

Hi. I used a local polyester yarn here in the Philippines I used more than 200g

[@millevestergaard2940]

Can I make for medium size or is it impossible?!?

My friend requested a bra but she’s a 38 G please help !

[@jessicaaxford5864]

Is there a written pattern available?

[@razcloud]

Hi, love you work❤️. Just wanna ask, how many grams did you use in that top? Thank you🥰

[@JamGabriel]

Approx 250g 😊

[@0MsNicole0]

The fast forwarding is killing 😭🤣 I hope I can grasp the concept soon though

[@koiparkfam169]

Can't get past the first row 😭 I'm so lost idk what to do

[@aimsters18]

Anyone able to help? I’m stuck on the band, around 38:30 the pattern says repeat until last stitch. Then repeat the previous row and then this row. So it should’ve been another row with the ch spaces and then a row of dcs, but she end up with what looks like a row of ch spaces and then sc? I’m so stuck! Someone please help!

[@JamGabriel]

Hi! I'm sorry if that part wasn't clear. the next 2 rows after that wasnt shown in the video. but for that row you need to finish it with solid DC. then it will ask you to repeat the previous row which is the one with ch spaces. then after that you need to make another row of solid DC before you get to the row of SC with ch spaces. So it's like - 1st DC with ch spaces - 2nd solid DC - 3rd DC with ch spaces - 4th solid DC - 5th sc with ch spaces. if this is still confusing you can DM me in any of my soc med so i can send you a vid. I'm not really good with explaining sorry.

[@aimsters18]

That’s not what’s shown though. After the last row with ch spaces there is no solid dc row, it goes straight to the single crochets. That’s why I kept getting messed up. You said to add a row of solid dcs before starting the sc row, but didn’t do it in the video. I had to look at the other band side to see what you did.

[@JamGabriel]

@@aimsters18 yes the 2 rows after 38:30 were not shown in the vid. sorry! missed that part. it's a row of solid sc* before the sc with ch2 spaces. see 49:14 1st DC with ch spaces 2nd solid DC 3rd DC with ch spaces 4th solid SC** 5th sc with ch spaces

[@soniabourne2977]

Hello. Great tutorial. Thank you! What are the cup size equivalents for the small, med and large? Would the XL fit a DD cup or a H cup?

[@JamGabriel]

Hi! The one in the tutorial is 2XL and fits up to DD cup 😊

[@soniabourne2977]

Thanks for the quick reply. So it's safe to estimate small A-B cup, medium B-C cup large C-D?

[@JamGabriel]

Yup 💖

[@raekaskie1521]

I am a 3x (kind of in the middle of a 2x to 3x) any advice on how to size up the pattern a little?

[@JamGabriel]

This pattern will actually fit a 2-3xl 🙂

[@Girly.Grunge.Crochet]

Hi I’m trying to make my first plus sized top but I’m worried I won’t make the band big enough any advice?!

The cup can fit up to 3xl. You may adjust the straps of this design to make it fut for you ☺️

@@JamGabrielthankyou!! ❤

[@XaeManAdventures]

Does this hurt your neck? Im like a J so my girls are pretty heavy for me, just tried the halter now I’m looking for alternative to keep the girls up.

[@JamGabriel]

Doesnt really hurt my neck. It's a criss cross back. You can try not cross it at the back and go straight on the first loop☺️

1 dc means one double crochet. 3 dc means three double crochets

What is the actual size of this? Someone requested for 55in cup D... i don't know if I should place the cups next to each other or if there should be a space
