Kylie Jenner-Inspired Scarf-Shaped Crochet Crop Top Pattern
Materials Needed
- Yarn/Wool: 100 grams of 1.5mm thread or wool (in any color you desire).
- Crochet Hook: Size 3 (1mm crochet hook recommended for thread type).
- Measuring Tape: To customize size and fit.
- Scissors: To cut yarn.
- Wool Needle: For sewing and finishing.
Step-by-Step Pattern
1. Create the Initial Chain
- Start by chaining 35 to 40 centimeters worth of chains.
- Ensure the chain length matches your chest measurement by wrapping it around your chest and shoulders, letting it extend to the center of your back.
- TIP: The chain must be an odd number for the pattern to work correctly.
- Once your chain is the correct length, secure it by adding 1 turning chain.
2. Build the Alternating Stitch Pattern
- Begin the first row:
- Skip the first space and make 1 single crochet (SC) in the next chain.
- In the following chain, make 1 double crochet (DC).
- Alternate between SC (single crochet) and DC (double crochet) across the length of your chain.
- End the row with 1 SC.
- Turn your work and create 3 chains (equivalent to 1 DC) to move up to the next row.
- For the second row and beyond:
- Work the pattern oppositely:
- Where there is a DC from the previous row, place a SC.
- Likewise, where there is a SC, place a DC.
- Continue alternating SC and DC to maintain the “lacy” pattern.
- Work the pattern oppositely:
- Repeat this process row by row until your work forms a square, approximately 35×35 cm.
- Optionally, adjust the size of the square to your desired length.
- Optionally, adjust the size of the square to your desired length.
3. Add the Edging
- With the square complete, turn your work and begin adding a neat border:
- Create 1 single crochet in each stitch along one side of the square.
- Place single crochets in all four sides of the square, ensuring clean and even stitches. Finish at the starting point.
- This border adds structure and refinement to the scarf-shaped top.
4. Create the Folded Pockets
- Lay your square flat and position it inside-out (wrong side facing up).
- Fold the sides of the square inward at an angle to form a rhombus shape.
- The folded sections will act as “pockets” to hold the cord.
- Adjust the size of the folds as follows:
- Sides closest to the top (scarf point) should be slightly smaller.
- The central fold should remain larger to create the main body.
- The folded sections will act as “pockets” to hold the cord.
- Using a wool needle, secure the folds with stitches to create the pockets. Ensure the seam is firm but discreet.
5. Add the Cord
- Make the cord:
- Cut 4 strands of yarn, each approximately 150 cm long.
- Braid or twist the strands together to create a strong, decorative rope.
- Each side of the top will require one cord.
- Insert the cord:
- Insert the cords through the “pockets” created by the folded sections.
- Secure them by tying knots or pulling the ends carefully through the openings.
- Insert the cords through the “pockets” created by the folded sections.
Final Assembly
- To complete the scarf-shaped top, weave and adjust the drawstring cords for a secure fit.
- Double-check tightness and comfort before wearing.
Special Features
- Unique Alternating Stitch Design: Alternating single and double crochets give the fabric a slightly lacy, textured appearance.
- Elastic and Stretchy Fit: The pattern allows the top to fit snugly and comfortably.
- Convertible Pockets for Drawstrings: The rhombus shape and pockets make it easy to add and customize drawstrings for tying at the back.
Tutor’s Suggestions
- Use lightweight yarn for a summer-friendly design.
- When measuring for the chain length, ensure the chain is slightly stretched because the fabric may expand with use.
- Customize the top by using multi-colored threads or adding beads to the cords for a bohemian touch.
Uses
- Festival Wear: Pair it with high-waisted shorts or skirts for a chic festival look.
- Beachside Glam: Layer it over a bikini for a sleek and stylish beach outfit.
- Casual Summer Top: Wear it with pants or jeans for a relaxed, yet trendy outfit.
Tip
For an even finish: Steam block the final piece to smooth out any uneven tension and set the shape.
