DIY WITCHY CROCHET HALTER TOP PART 1

[@mannemo]

the explanation of the cup corners is incomprehensible, omg, i have just lost an hour of my life. congrats to everyone who figured it out. going to stick to my single crochet cups and come back to see if i can start the tutorial from there!

[@Ambujdwivedi10]

Lots of love from India.....very nice pattern.....first i saw your thumbnail i thought to make it...... I was not confident about it as i am a beginner....but u taught it so nicely that as following ur steps i just didnt realise how fastly i completed my first crochet brallete ...... I like that u didnt skip a single step and u speak evry step so anybody who is pro can play ur video and start making it...... Though it took 3 days for me to make it as i am a beginner but today i finally make one. So i thought to appreciate ur work and ur awesome tutorials...... ur voice is so nice, calm......

[@shawtygotlo1]

For everyone who needs a larger size: Instead of modifying the pattern, I suggest using a heavier weight yarn & a larger hook. I used an L hook & Berroco's Comfort Chunky yarn. That way you don't have to completely rework the pattern in the center section

[@taylorflanagan7411]

I prefer the talk through over the voice overs. This was easier to follow than the ones where you did voice overs. You seem to slow down and explain in more details. Thanks so much for sharing this video.

[@korinahojilla7921]

I love this pattern. I found this year's so when I first started crocheting and I still use it to this day. ❤ Everyone I know loves when I use this

[@kelseyvelho3219]

Just wanted to to say I absolutely adore you! I'm a young crocheter myself and I love that you are modernizing crochet with your amazing designs. Thank you so much for your videos, I think what you're doing is just awesome. 🖤

[@tamara25252]

I really like your tutorial! You're slow enough for me to study, and you explain well enough that I'm not lost in-between your stitches!

[@consolemadamethirdkill]

Thank you so much for these fashion forward tutorials, Dana. Greatly appreciated

[@DanaBold]

Thanks so much for the kind words!

[@rebeccacurtis1314]

The back was a little too bare for me so I added a strap across the back just under the bust and then two criss cross straps from the neck that pass under the other strap. I used the double crochet shell double crochet pattern to make all the straps so they are a good inch+ wide.

[@the_thread_whisperer]

I made 25 start chains and 15 rows for a 38D cup😊 3mm needle

[@saxyblonde27]

Great tutorial! Everything was going great until I reached the top faster than you. Not sure where I went wrong, fingers crossed I still made it work. Heading onto part 2!!

[@suesmart2906]

I got through the first part, making the cups and [finally] getting the center section between them. Cool. And then came the 2nd part. After ripping it out more times than I care to count, I am trying to figure out how to salvage something out of this. I notice that the comments are disabled for this part too; maybe too many others found it beyond confusing too? P.S. I'm no "beginner" crocheter... I have made many fairly intricate patterns. But this one really does have me stumped. Maybe you could do it over? It really is a beautiful top. Thank you...

[@Nicole-qh8cs]

Great design...I find its easier to crawl up the side of the cups with 3 sl st's (slip stitches) instead of a ch 3... not appealing to the eye, plus it leaves the peice less bulky. Just a tip. But great design...I loved it so much I made one in white. Thanks for the tort!

[@izabelaizabo949]

Your tutorials are really helpful.thanks a lot.I finished crocheting that one

[@vildeh7684]

What a cool pattern! Its very easy to follow so far, i love it!

[@heyylakshmi8913]

I am in LOVE with this so much!!! Can't wait for part 2!!

[@LaurenAshleyS]

You're work is amazing! Thank you for sharing! I've been crocheting for years now and can't figure out how to make my own patterns. i usually buy them or something. Hope to be able to create one if my own soon. I'll be trying this also

[@gracecooper1263]

I'm in love with you're tutorials😍

[@ememnkamare]

You are so talented and trust me, you are an expert!

[@patisserie1524]

Thanks for the tutorial! I'm making it right now in white and its looking amazing, can't wait for summer! and you are so hilarious.. hopefully to see more like this 😊

[@harveyfernandez4919]

i really love your tutorials but can you please make a written pattern , if there is then please put it on the description box but thank you for making these it is greatly appreciated

[@Victoria-zr9pi]

Yes please written pattern

[@jillhoman8961]

I’ll take one of you make it

[@Ppooppoobbutthhead]

Awesome tutorial, I watched the whole series for this top and it came out awesome!!💕💕💕 new Subscriber

[@CrochetPalace]

Where's the rest?

[@sherit8594]

I like the Pineapple halter that Lenysea shows how to make. Covers more and has thicker adjustable backing. No sewing or making the "cups" separate. Simply measure your busy line. I've watched Sooo many crocheting videos on KZbin YES Black was a terrible choice in colors 🙄

[@bluerosekraftsilyo]

Hi miss dana .i already made one of your your work like this halter top and i really love it. Thank you for sharing and god blessed..:)

[@erikareva9488]

I am now obsessed with this top!!! 🖤🤘🏻🖤

[@bekahhaught807]

This top is to die for-- I'm gonna try it :)

[@lianevelasco4587]

I just finished mine, and it looks awesome. Thank you so much. :)

[@number9withsoup]

Your nails are always perfect 💕

[@Morningferry11]

Thank you so much for these video tutorials 👍👍👍 they är great 🌸

[@designbyka8526]

i did 6 rows for the cups, but i am getting to the top sooner as you do,

[@atianna69]

Design by Ka I aswell

[@proftatt]

Same

[@savannahjane3]

Same how did you ladies fix it??

[@joseraaijmakers663]

Design by Ka when you look very close you can see that she says go into the third chain but a few times she goes into the second chain. She counts the chain where she is ateched as the first

[@katb607]

If you get to the top early check to make sure you didn't make too many single shells leading up to the increasing shells. If not just try doing 2 chains on the side of the cup. You could also try doing less or more single shells leading up to the increasing shells if you're trying to make a larger size. Also if you're trying to make a larger size make sure you increase the number of chains connecting the shells otherwise the cups will fold up a bit.

[@rainbowgogglez003]

This is a great tutorial. 😍 You are so talented.

[@rachelhill6135]

I love this top! great job!

[@MsSoesoe]

Your voice is so calming 🤗

[@inesschmitt3819]

Thanks for the tutorial. The result looks really nice

[@hisbodywasweak249]

This is so gorgeous! I do plan to make this after I hit my goal weight (for obvious reasons) so I'm definitely going to subscribe to your channel. c:

[@saraht.4623]

I wanted to make this so badly, because it really is super cute! Buttt, it just seems impossible to me. The instructions aren’t clear sometimes and I can barely see anything so that doesn’t compensate for it either. My cup turns out super tall and pointy and I have no idea why😔

[@cheetahsdimples-1]

You should become a Crochet Fashionista if you came up with this pattern.

[@chocolatev2]

Hello! When you are attaching the two cups and working on the next design, which way are the cups facing? Are you attaching them and working on them from the side of the cups that will be on the body or is it attached while the cups are facing outwards? You say left and right but is that the “right side” cup that is going on my right side or on the right side when you look at the top from the outside?

[@lynettecurran1862]

Can I ask r u just goin in the front loop on the cup or both loops xxx by the way luv the top xxx

[@marilynzuniga8679]

I did my top and love it! Regards from Chile 🙋♥

[@awishofjewel7857]

I love all your tutorials,please make more ❤

[@miszreese]

Beautiful work and amazing tutorial. Question: why did you use such a small hook with a worsted weight yarn? I know this was a few months ago but was it Caron Simply Soft? I know that although it's a weight 4 it's fairly thin. Was it to avoid holes in the cups?

[@watchingmisskel4156]

Girl. Great top. Great job.

[@robertaespree]

During the beginning you were slip stitching from behind then you switched to a front slip stitch. Does it matter?

[@rocioalvarez6735]

Hello Dana, gourgeous piece and veery sexi in black, althou you mentioned in the video that black was a difficult color, but pleaaase can you repeat the model in a ligther yarn??! please😊 beautiful work👍👍

[@pamelaambay7806]

Hi Dana I actually copied your pattern.. Cause its sooooo pretty.. I posted it on my instagram and fb.. And my friends are loving it...

[@emc.1035]

For future reference doll. I understand that the piece is black, but maybe you should use a much lighter color of yarn just for the tutorial itself.

[@DanaBold]

+Emily AutumnCee yeah I said during the video that the yarn color was hard to see and I'd never use black for a tutorial again

[@katie8berns]

Hi and thank you for this! I started doing the rows, but the caps are a bit larger, so there are 2 or 3 rows to be filled until the top of them. How do I continue?

[@neckogx5904]

I'm stuck here with the same problem ..can you please tell me what did you do to finish it ? Thank you

[@BarbieBabygirl258]

Hey Dana is there a specific size yarn for these videos because in Barbados where I live I have the small needle you have her and the needle is always getting tangled in the yarn(like not holding the whole yarn just some strands)

[@ريميعلي-ك7ن]

I liked it a lot .. I am doing it right now ... Thank you 😊😊😊

[@nice5496]

For the cups part do we have to did it the way you showed or can we do it a different way that we know?

[@aricameron7432]

Hey Dana B I am trying to follow along with this tutorial but with shell pattern and that I get to the top much faster than you do how do I fix that

[@moniquabrown1473]

Same here:( Do I continue with the rest of the pattern? Will it all even out in the end if I reached the top of the cups a row before you? I placed the seven double crochets in the last row I did.

[@mariazamarripa8046]

Beautiful!! Thank you.🙂

[@LoBe1026]

I am currently making this and I ran into a problem. I made larger cups with more rows and so I am not at the top loop when you finish the center design before moving to the side of the cups. I am wondering how to do another row or two to match up to the top loop of the cups. The 7 double crochets in the center is what I am left off with and I believe I need an extra row or two.

[@rosebazor5430]

if you are at the 7 DC (the fan) then you basically would repeat the same pattern afterwards with a sc in each sts ch 3 sc in the next sts..so forth till you have used all the sts in the fan. when you make the turn at the end of the row and get back to the same part its would be sc in the ch 3 space, ch 3 sc in next ch 3 space, ch 3...so forth till you have 6 total if that makes since.

[@usix123]

really love your works

[@christineforrester5203]

Vanessa Nguyen ,'

[@adorkable303]

Please help! I had to make my cups up to 10rows (I know you used 6) but now that I'm at the fan row and it doesn't reach all the way to the top yet I'm stumped... how do I continue going I still need a row or two left to get to the top but have no clue how to do it so it doesn't mess with the rest of the pattern. Thank you in advance!

[@adorkable303]

Never mind! Instead of doing 5 of the first rows I added one more and got exactly where I needed to be. Thanks for such an amazing tutorial!

[@lasemidesnatada]

I have the same issue but i dont understand how you solved it?

[@aleana3271]

this is a great tutorial!! What do I do if I want smaller cups?

[@punksmom86]

If you want smaller cup sized, just take away stitches from the center stitch and don't make as many rows along the outside.

[@anastasiiadelmedico9752]

Hi! I was just wondering why you used such a small hook with weight 4 yarn because it makes it much harder to crochet since the hook keeps going in between the yarn or slipping off :)

[@emilybond7556]

It's to keep the stitches tight. You can adjust it to suit yourself. I myself used a size 3mm as 2.5mm is too small in my opinion. But you can use size 4mm if you have a tight tension

[@han42527]

My cups have ended up quite pointy/triangular around the top but yours are rounded. Any idea what I've done wrong?

[@padad4247]

Has anyone reduced this to an extra small or small if so what did you adjust chain wise?

[@peaceloverelaxation7379]

question, for the very last row of the cups, were you still doing chain 3 then double crochet?

[@hebaali1071]

why you did not change the black colour i cant see it well i like it so much but it was so hard to see it thanks a lot dear

[@jacquelineallison5248]

This is a great top!! Like everyone else commented..lighter color PLEASE. Any chance you can redo this tutorial with a lighter color and did you ever write out the pattern? Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@kalinamamalina]

I made the cups exactly like you said but when i get to the middle section it seems like your cup has more stitches than mine. Can you please teel me how many stitches in total you have on the cups

[@chloebrackens6090]

What weight yarn did you use? Btw love this. Very excited to make.

[@esha1220]

Love this top!

[@jenniferkillgren1356]

I have made a couple of your pieces but this tutorial with the black yarn? I literally have two cups sitting here and will not be using them for this piece. Although I love what it looks like completed this tutorial is too hard to see. p.s. I love how you go at a normal speed in tutorials. I hate waiting while someone does every stitch on camera.

[@verobono1590]

great tutorials, love ur work :) Saludos desde Argentina

[@TracyMM95]

Do you have a pattern for this one? It’s hard to see in black. Thanks

[@anastasias.2002]

How many rows in the cup would I do for a large?

[@livboethryse1803]

What hook size and yarn are you using? And do you have a written pattern? :) great video!

[@BoogieCrochet]

Hi Dana, do you go off patterns? Or is your work out of your head?

[@DestinysPookie]

[@DeathOn3rdStreet]

What would i do if i were to have smaller cups?

[@catbellybandit571]

do you have written instructions for diff sizes by any chance?

This is such a great tutorial. I love it. Could you possibly upload the written pattern :D

[@DanaBold]

+Andrea Bennett thank you! I didn't write out the pattern, I'm not sure how to write out patterns, maybe I'll start

[@emiekawazoe]

not sure if I did something wrong when making the cups or what but when I do the center part I reach the top of the cups on the row after the one with three spaces, so row 8. did I miss something somewhere by chance?

[@chelseyreddig2414]

same thing happens with me

[@AlyTray]

Emberlynn did you find out? Maybe we need to do one more row

[@AlyTray]

Emberlynn as in when making the cups

[@emiekawazoe]

Alysa Travis gah sorry it's been a while since I made this, I think I just ended up skipping a row. it ended up being too big overall for me though

[@AlyTray]

Emberlynn skipping a row where? Did you just start over from scratch or the middle?

[@vvskiitlesvv]

Your cups must be bigger than mine, you got two more rows than I could

[@nadezhdagrozdanova4784]

Which size is the hook you used. 🙂

[@myebranch]

This is a beautiful top. I had a little problem because the volume was so low and the color made it a little difficult to follow.
