Start to make the fancy lace crochet stitch.

Row 1: Sc across, ch 3, turn.

Row 2: then skip the first stitch  and make 2dc,ch2,2dc all in the same of the next stitch , then

* skip 3 and make 2dc, ch2,2dc all in next stitch*   repeat * to * across until end of the row, then you will have 2 stitch left sk1 and make 1dc in last stitch. ch3 and turn.

Repeat row 3 until  you get nearly half of the wide of the front panel then start to make the second piece after you finished second piece then lay 2 piece of back panel on top of front panel to see if you have 2 inches gap between 2 piece of the back panel.

If you have less than 2 inch gap just ribb the row off  on each side or if you have more than 2 inch gap just increase more row on each side  or leave it as it is so it will show off your skin in the back more…

Assemply.

After you finished 3 pieces of rectangles 1 of front panel and 2 pieces of back panel then lay them in flatted by the back panel is on top of the front panel.

And use yarn needle to sew the side to create the body and no ew for the armhole 5-6 inch then  use 2 marker to make the open neck for 8 inch and sew the top side to create the shoulder.

Add strap.

Add the tie to the bottom of the crop top by chain away fron the bottom end  around 50-80 chain.

To make the strap thinker we will sc around the strap including the crop top  bottom part back and forward for 1 -3 row, depend on how thick of the strp u want to be.

Then attach wooden button on top by using yarn needle.

Alll done!
