The pattern only uses basic stitches: ch, sc, and dc, and is very easy to crochet.
The final dimensions of the crochet Crazy Love top are 49 cm in width and 52 long (including the shoulders).
For this project I’ve used this yarn: For my crochet Crazy Love top, I’ve used almost 300 g Pure Cotton Fine (6 x 50 g) (50g= 170m/ 1.76oz= 185 yards) and a 2,5 mm hook.
This is a very high-quality cotton yarn.
This yarn is made from 100% combed Turkish cotton, which is soft, flexible, and exceptionally durable. Textiles in Turkish cotton stay beautiful for many years and only get softer with use. This yarn also excels when it comes to its absorbing powers, but is quick-drying at the same time.
The color chart includes plenty of gorgeous colors, you have to decide what color you like and get started. Here you can buy this yarn:

Repeat the pattern from round 6 until you reach the desired width. My top has 29 rounds and is 49 cm in width.
The neckline and the shoulders:
After you reach the desired size and crochet the last round continues with 2 ch, turn, and crochet dc until the end of the row. Ch 2, turn and crochet the 2nd row of dc. These 2 rows are crocheted just to one side of the square, the side you choose to make the neckline.
Ch 2, turn and crochet 30 dc for the first shoulder, ch 1, turn and crochet 30 sc.
Cut the yarn and crochet the second shoulder:
First row: ch 2, 30 dc;
The second row: ch 1, 30 sc.
But if you need bigger or smaller shoulders just crochet how many dc you need for the first row. Then continue with the same number of sc for the second row.
Crochet the second piece the same.
Sew together the front and the back panel leaving a space for the sleeves then sew together the shoulders too.
The sleeves:
I’ve crocheted the sleeves directly on the top, but you can crochet them separately and sew it on the top.
Round 1: ch 2, 92 dc, finish the round with an sl st.
Repeat round 1 seven times.
Round 8: ch 1, 92 sc, finish the round with an sl st.
The hem:
Because I wanted the top a little bit longer I’ve crocheted 3 rounds of dc and one round of sc. But you can skip this step if you like this top to be more like a crochet crop top.

Is there a way to change sizes? You only have one size.
Yes, is very easy to adjust the size. Because this pattern is crocheted like a granny square, you just crochet until you reach the width you need.
