I’m more than excited to finally share my new pattern with you. The Maré Top, a fully customizable, made-to-measure crochet pattern designed for intermediate makers (or confident beginners ready for a fun challenge). It’s flexible enough to work with any yarn in your stash, and the adjustable fit means it’s made just for you
This project holds a very special place in my heart, it was my very first design, back in 2023. And Since then, I’ve been saying I would write it down.
It’s only 2 years later. But I finally did it. Better late than never.
And after a few months of testing, making sure everything is set, (and getting sidetracked by other projects)…. It’s officially out!
If you’re looking for a fun, satisfying project to add to your summer wardrobe. The Maré Top can be your next favorite. You can grab the pattern on Ravelry or Ribblr.
How it started…
I’ve always loved crochet. But not the overly crocheted look. You probably know exactly what look I’m talking about (not that there’s something wrong with it, I just don’t like it for my clothes).
For this top I wanted something different. Something I could wear it casually or dress up. That at first glance looked simple, but had a WOW effect when you turn around.
I started with the three colors I was gonna use. I wanted striped crochet top with a wave-like effect. A basic shape with straps that didn’t require chains. Before I knew it, the top was taking shape
I wish I had a super cool story of inspiration behind it. But i don’t. This is just me making a crochet tank top with my preferences in mind. No big crochet “holes” in it. Cropped, cause everything I own is high-waisted. Open back. No long cords and complicated tying methods. Three straps because I had three colors, simple as that.
