This pattern is available from etsy.com for $3.50.

This short top with crocheted fringe is made of 100-150g of Sport yarn (I used cotton/acrylic blend with 160m in 50g ball). At first sight, this crochet pattern is simple enough, but you need to have knowledge on how to work into back loops of stitches, how to make increases and decreases. From another hand - there are 9 pages with photos of every step for you to deepen and understand the whole process better.

When you finish with crocheting this crop top, you will train (if you did not before) your crochet skills: hdc ribbing, dc “braid” pattern, hot to make crochet fringe at bottom of crocheted garment.

At first, you make the ribbed part (the pattern has instructions on sizes S-XL). Then, you complete the bottom fringe (I suggested crocheted fringe, but you may make the regular fringe upon your choice) and finish the top with “braid” along the neckline.
