Materials Needed

Yarn: Two colors of medium-weight (Size 4) yarn (e.g., Yellow and Brown).
Hook: 5.0 mm (H) crochet hook.
Tools: Scissors, tapestry needle.

Part 1: The Chest Section (Solid Stripe)

This part is worked in flat rows of half double crochet (hdc) to form the top band.

Foundation: Create a slip knot and chain 85 (or a length that wraps from one side of your back to the other).
Save
Row 1 (Color A): Work 1 hdc in the 2nd chain from the hook and in each chain across.
Row 2: Ch 1, turn. Work 1 hdc in each stitch across. At the final stitch, pull through with Color B on the last loop.
Save
Rows 3–4 (Color B): Ch 1, turn. Work 2 rows of hdc. Change back to Color A at the end of Row 4.
Growth: Repeat this 2-row color rotation until you have 14 rows total (or your desired chest coverage).

Part 2: The Mesh Bodice

Now we transition into the open “mesh” look for the lower half.

Transition Row: Using Color A, work one row of single crochet (sc) across the bottom edge of your chest section.
Row 1 (Mesh): Ch 4, turn. Skip 3 stitches, work 1 double crochet (dc) in the 4th stitch, ch 3. Repeat from * across.
Row 2: Ch 4, turn. Work 1 dc directly into the dc of the row below, ch 3. Repeat across.
Color Rotation: Change colors every 2 rows just like the chest section. Work until you have 10 mesh rows total.

Part 3: Back Loops & Side Straps

We need to create “holes” on the side edges of the top to lace up the back.

Edge Foundation: Attach yarn to the top corner of the side edge. Work sc evenly down the side of the chest and mesh sections.
Hole Row: Ch 4, turn. Skip 3 spaces, work 1 sc in the 4th. Repeat up the side to create loops.
Upper Tie: Without fastening off at the top corner, chain 110 (this will be your shoulder strap). Fasten off.
Repeat: Mirror these steps on the opposite side of the top.

Part 4: The Cinch Detail & Assembly

The cinched “scrunch” look in the front is created with a separate decorative cord.

The Cinch Cord: Holding both colors of yarn together, create a slip knot and chain 185. Fasten off.
Front Detail: * Find the exact middle of the chest section.
- Feed the cinch cord vertically under the top edge, pull it down to the middle of the bodice, and tie a tight knot. This creates the gathered “butterfly” effect.
Lacing the Back: * Lay the top flat. Take the strap from the right side and cross it into the top loop on the left side.
- Take the strap from the left side and cross it into the top loop on the right.
- Continue crisscrossing “Left-Right” through all side loops until you reach the bottom.
