Continue making single crochets joining the edges together until the end of the row.
Chain 1, cut the yarn, and secure.
Step 6: Upper Part of the Top
Using two threads, insert the hook near the seam and make a single crochet.
Make two single crochets in the next free space.
Continue making two single crochets in each free space until you have the same number of stitches as the number of rows on the band.

Chain 1, turn your work, and repeat until the desired strap length is reached (approximately 30-34 cm).
Chain 1, leave a long tip, cut the yarn, and secure.
Sew the straps to the top and hide the ends through the stitches.
Step 8: Ruffles (Optional)
Insert the hook from the wrong side in the stitch near the strap, make a slip stitch.
Insert the hook into the next stitch and make a slip stitch.
Chain 2 and turn your work.
Insert the hook into the slip stitch, make a double crochet.
