This is the first top that I'll be making, but I have crocheted for 40 years. Yes, I'm old! You said that you're 4'8". If I want to make this for a 5'4" 15 year old, do I just make the body longer and leave the shoulders the same? I love your pattern. I want to make something that's in style for her.

Love you!!! And your site! On your crochet tops you use 24/7 cotton yarn. Do you have substitutes for this yarn that I can use PLEASE

Hi robin, the yarn subtitutes sport weight cotton blend or cotton. acrylic might do but might have to use smaller size and the guage might be off that would be fine as long as you crochet the 1 rectangle that wrap around your bust size.
