The poncho top body makes 2 pieces.

The left & right panel makes 2 pieces.

The measurement of one rectangle.

• 31 inches long for a crop size length. For a full-length top, add more rows.
• 16 inches wide fit bust size 30-34 inches.

First, let’s measure your bust size, then divide by 2. For example, my bust size is 32/2.

So I will get 16 inches for my size. See the video tutorial for how to make them into your size.

Start with the left and right panels.

Pick up a crochet hook size 4.0 mm and Start off by making a slip knot. Then make 57 chains for sizes small and medium fit from bust sizes 30-34

( For the other size start the foundation chain in multiples of 3 that match your bust size calculation.)

Row1. Make 2 dc in the 3rd chain from hook and *sk 2 ch, sc in next ch, and make 2 dc in same ch stitch* Repeat from * to* end of row. Sc in the last ch of the row. Ch 2, turn.

Row2. 2 dc in the first sc of the previous row, *sk next 2 dc, make sc and 2 dc in next sc*

Repeat from * to* until the end of the row. Make sc in turning ch 2 at the end of the row, ch 2, turn.

Row 3 and beyond, and Repeat row 2 until we get 31 inches.

Add lace edging.

Add edging at only one side of the rectangle.

Row1. sc in each space until the end of the row. Chain 2 and turn.

Row2. dc in the same stitch, * ch1, then dc in next st* repeat this * to * until the end of the row and fasten off and repeat the same for the remaining panel.

Assemble the poncho top.

Fold the rectangles in half and join the back part of the rectangle to create the back panel for the top.

After we finish creating the back panel, we will move on to create the armhole.

The armhole can vary depending on how big you want the armhole to be. In the example piece, I did an armhole for 7 inches.

After we finish creating the armhole, we will sew up the front to close the open body.

And that is all we did.

Assemble

All done.
