FORM FITTING CROCHET TOPS FOR EVERY SIZE// TIPS + TRICKS

[@llanisclark3910]

This was right on point. My daughter and I are so different in size that I always have to redo .Tried your method for her and it fit so perfectly she thought I got a pattern. Thanks for this. Waiting anxiously for bikini bottoms.

[@abyl.4676]

This was awesome! Thank you so much! You should totally do a video for sweaters too!

[@keenavenzen8402]

Yes can you make the video for the sweater and bottom measurements I am having a difficult time with my sweater measurements. Love your work thanks for sharing.

[@briannaleigh5725]

I really love this tutorial! PLEASE do one for bottoms! I struggle getting the size right with bottoms alot

[@Hoodhippietribe]

You measure the bust and measure the waist ... figure out the difference set the number aside.. whatever half the waist comes to, add that number and that should be the front of your top... your welcome...

[@diamondodaniel5795]

I was replaying over and over again it was like a riddle thanks got it now

[@Somegirl71]

What do you mean the front of the top? Like the length of the bust? The height? I'm lost

[@JB-el6le]

The bikini one can’t be right 22inch each if I have a bust 36 and waist 28? I can understand the halter top being 14inch half of my waist. Surely she should mean each cup should stretch to 7? So confused 😂

Oh my God I needed this. Been trying to make a bra for my sister who doesn't live with me and I had no idea how I was going to do it. Thank you so much for this video

[@kaitasmr9035]

This is amazing!!! Thank you. I've been trying to work out how to size my pieces and getting totally lost, this is sooooo helpful

[@KAydelott7]

This was honestly the easiest and most helpful video on crochet bra sizing. I’ve been so confused and just guessing but now I have a great and simple method. Thank you so much sharing this information!

[@Truthlover4U]

I found this! What a relief. Now I can finally make a bra to hold me correctly the what that "I" want it. Thanks a million!

[@kyrincossolotto3872]

Dana, this is great! I've been watching your videos for about a year now and I love your style. Thank you for all you do :)

[@cmmartinez330]

Yes Please Make More! I’ve been crocheting for 4-5years and I still haven’t caught on to the whole gauge and measurements🤯 and I love making tops but when it comes to making them I’m all over the map, Everyone explains it differently and everyone learns slowly...umm that’s me😂, so please Dana do some more videos 😊 Thank You!

[@officiallychelsy]

I need tips for crocheting clothing and stuff. My clothing keeps having holes wish shows parts j don't want to show. It's awkward and I need tips to prevent gaps or cove them up

[@kristenm.joseph7916]

Thank you for making this video! It cleared up a lot of questions I had regarding my own tops.

[@tree8779]

Hey Dana. I got lost when you were explaining the measurements lol. I did not understand this. Might you be able to do another or have it written out somewhere? Thank you

[@keepingupwithsom3607]

Thank you for this tutorial..it was very helpful.. Would definitely like to see one for bottoms (skirts, shorts and pants)

[@juscallme_kash2305]

Can you please send me directions on how to match up the yarn to measurements. Like I get you measure the waist and bust i just got lost when you started subtracting and adding lol

[@Csncelthis1223]

Thank you! This is good info!! I'm going to use this, my crocheted clothes kept coming out different sizes and i wasn't stretching it when i measured it!!

[@roguecnix6516]

I'm checking your channel now to see if you did a video like this for bottoms or dresses. This is great!

[@kristibehme8268]

I love these technique type videos!!! Especially from your perspective!!

[@amoreperilsapere432]

Hi, where is the tutorial of this top? It is beautiful.

[@boglarkatrocsanyi4665]

[@jamiececilielange5249]

Thank you for talking about stretch :) I couldn't find much information on it elsewhere...

[@meancarleen]

Oh great, NOW I come across this video!! UHGGG I just completed my second try at a crochet top today, both too big😁....at least NOW I know the proper way to get it right, thanks! I just subscribed!!

[@biancaprocter6851]

Love this!! Helped me so much with my tops!! PLEASE do one for bottoms & sweaters too!! my biggest problem I had was I was crocheting an oversized sweater & using this method made it smaller than what I wanted & i had to go back & crochet more rows on the side, but when i crocheted my foundation chain to the exact inch i wanted it would get bigger as i would keep going. Obviously its trial & error but how would you go about fixing that?

[@rena6994]

Awesome video ! Great tips, I always admire how your pieces fit

[@avriltampus6752]

looking forward to watching your (probably) next video about how u size up your sweaters! ❤️

[@cruiz526]

Yay! I have your same measurements!😊 Thanks for this video, super helpful!

[@teaonnajewel]

Could you make a video for the bottoms? I really love these tips/tricks!! Thank you so much for sharing 💕

[@rachelkadau8085]

I have been watching your vids since last year. .its soo amazing how your channel is growing... keep up the good work hun and you should totally do a video for sweaters

[@lorenatnat4158]

Thank you so much!! 1 question. I am doing a pattern and it says chain 30 if your rib cage is 29 mine is 31. So how many would I chain?. I chain 46 for the first one and then the second one I went with 20 inches

[@hamsterteeth3893]

i just started crocheting and this was so helpful!! i was wondering if you could make a tutorial for the top that you made in this video, i love how it looks and i can't find a similar pattern anywhere, if anyone knows a tutorial or pattern please lmk! thank you

[@sunnyisfictional]

Do you think you can crochet a large backpack that people can use for school? My school is strict and requires a specific color of backpack, which I bought a looooong time ago and it broke, and I can't find another one in that color AT ALL. I _do_ have a yarn that color though, which had me thinking.... I could crochet a backpack. And I'll see if my favorite crocheters could help me! I'm going to start a backpack collection! ...even though I can only wear a single color of bag. Oh dear.

[@zahre_mar]

It's possible but you will need to reinforce the bottom to keep it from sagging and you will need to use a strong cord to crochet over with whatever yarn you have. It has to be washable for easy care. If you look up Wayuu Mochila, you will understand the fundamentals required to create a sturdy, fashionable backpack.

[@hellahookinothercrafts2507]

Is there a tutorial for the top you have on in the picture ?

[@FrenchGrey]

Yes please make a video about tops and bottoms!

[@katiecharlton6511]

Great tutorial!!!! One of my favorites! Thank you!

[@rachelgoette9459]

Supper helpful. Please do make another video for bottoms and sweaters!

[@allielucchesi2797]

do you have any tips for sizing crochet tops that will not have an adjustable back? Even using my own measurements they get stuck at my shoulders and are just generally harder to get on

[@thejennifer7658]

This was extremely helpful! Thank you 🙏 can’t wait for the next one.

[@rena6994]

Hoping to see some Dana b KZbin soon! It's been soooo long but I know how mom life is ... Just know ur missed

[@winddown5778]

Please do another tutorial showing this method with bottoms. Thanks for sharing

[@sosekeitto56]

what about the height of the cup? like how am i gonna know how many chains i make in the beginning so that it turns out long enough?

[@mayratemores9255]

Thank you this is so helpful! Can you please make one on bottoms and also if making a top for someone else, how do you know how long to make the straps for the top?

Can you please make a video of your measurement instructions for bottoms/skirts and sleeves?

[@TheBrit1992]

One for bottoms would be, so helpful!!

[@dacanale]

I’m going to try it. Thank you for the tips. 😊

[@Visible21212]

I really love your explanation But my question is what if the torso is 30 and you divide it to 15 right will I add 15inchs to both side of the cup(15inchs to one cup and another 15inchs to the other cup =30 right ) and won't it be too big Please explain

[@DanaBold]

If your whole torso(wrapping around your back is 30) what is your boob measurement? 15 would be the front so subtract 15 from the boob measurement and divide that by 2 for each cup measurement. Hope that makes sense

[@Visible21212]

@@DanaBold Yes thank you I got 9inchs

[@JB-el6le]

I’m a waist 28 and bust 36. So that would make the cup 22inches? I’m soooooo confused. I’m literally a 36 A and that would be a huge cup size for me. Please can you help? I don’t understand this at all😂

[@kariowens4380]

So you have this pattern with straps over shoulder and not around neck ?

[@karenrobinson8843]

Good thinking because I want to know how much chains I need to use to make the bikini bottom and good thinking againg

[@somebudiesangel2]

If your measurement for a halter is only half of your waist size for 15" ...do you not need to do increases as you get to the under bust height to achieve 20" to accommodate your bust ?

[@adriennepullen4830]

Thank you so much for this! I love your videos!

I had to pause as soon as i heard tape measure. Very few people who crochet ever use a tape measure especially because it does help in making sizes for others you can't see

[@luckycarebear9406]

Could I use 24/7 dk

[@coral8164]

im romanian and my torso is 61 cm so 24 inches but i dont know what she is saying about subracting and the other stuff😃 can someone help me😩

[@niayajo1991]

If I’m understanding correctly, you’ll measure your waist & bust. Subtract the waist & bust measurements. Divide the waist measurement. Then ADD the leftover total from the SUBTRACTED amount & ADD it to your HALF amount.. Confusing, I know. So here’s a better breakdown.. Her measurements are 30” for the waist & 35” for the bust. So you subtract 30 from 35 which leaves you with 5. Then you divide 30 (which is 15) & you add the total amount from your subtraction to that total, which will equal 20. So when she crochets something for herself, she measures it by making sure it stretches to 20 inches.. Hopefully this helps. I’m still trying to grasp the concept myself, so I’m just sharing what I PERSONALLY understood. Lol.

[@betheenvi]

Great info.... question how do I get the correct measurements for a corset back

[@Smokeey__]

did she ever end up doing bottoms and sweaters too or??

[@user-ox9lo2nj9q]

CleverNESS!!

[@shelbylee242]

I never thought about the piece having to be stretched when measured. No wonnndddeeerrrrr

[@321123Nelly]

I don't get it... do you crotchet once 15 inches for the back and then 20 inches for the front?

[@mellinsomnia1]

I don't understand anything she was talking about and all these people are saying awesome video, I don't see it is. Instead of talking about it, she should have shown it and made a proper tutorial. Like this it seems a waste of time...

[@jennawilkins6345]

Thank you so much ❤

[@sheliafrench1276]

I know you have so many people asking you if you would do this if you do that and I hate to ask you but I have looked for the past couple of months I just started crocheting and I am 52 I am a plus size and I have the cups I don’t want to make a bikini to go outside with that I would like to make some cute little tops like this to wear in my house they are so beautiful if you get the time would you mind helping me to figure out how to do that I would so appreciate it nobody makes clothes or even cute clothes like this because we have jiggly parts but it doesn’t mean we don’t want to be beautiful too but nobody does patterns or videos for the girls but if you get the time please let me know , and I’m glad that I found you you have a new Suby thank you sweetie you have a good day hello from Florida oh yeah I live in Florida now you know why I want to made small shirts and a small tanks and stuff like that it is hot here 🔥🔥🔥

[@dazeeynnaji4537]

Thank you for the video, I will like to know how to measure shorts

[@laineellisphotography]

Does anyone know how to use this theory to make a halter with someone with a small waist and large breasts? EX. 34 DD, so a 28-32 in torso/waist and 37-39 inch bust. Thanks in advance!

[@mellinsomnia1]

I don't understand a thing she was saying. Like a clickbate video...

[@feliciajones9765]

Divide 28 by 2 which is 14 then 39 (bust) - 28 (torso/waist) is 11, so 14+11=25, 25inches stretched in the front & 14inches for your back

[@imtime22]

Thank you!

[@frenchymendoza8174]

When you say to measure around the widest part of where your bust is, do you wrap the measuring tape over your boobs or around the under part of your boobs?
