Needleworkmonday Crop Top Tutorial || DELETING EXCESSIVE NUMBER OF PHOTOS

As I was making my crop top pattern, taking pictures and some videos, I noticed that my phone storage has become lesser and lesser and that I can't make any more videos for my pattern. That's because I have LOTS of inspiration photos mostly crochet items and patterns of course coming from the internet waiting for me to have my version for quite some time now. And they are increasing day by day. But when I think of things that I want to crochet, I still search the internet for ideas.

Now tell me what kind of disorder or illness is it?

Is it still NORMAL?

Do you feel the same way?

I need your feedback about this matter as I was worried that I am having an abnormal reaction toward crochet items.😅

But anyways, I decided to check each picture and video on my phone and started to delete those images that I think I wouldn't need anymore.

I deleted many patterns, amis inspiration photos, videos from our walk, and many more screenshots but then it was not enough. Before, I remember having 5000+ photos and forgot how many videos I have. I'm not the type of person who loves to capture a selfie so you would hardly see one except for my IDs.😅

I noticed this one album I named "old rose top" which was dated last June 22-23 and asked myself if I had shared this tutorial on the Needleworkmonday community.

I check all my posts here in hive backward until May 2022 and noticed that I had never shared this one. So I decided to share this tutorial first before I finally delete this album.

MATERIALS

But I noticed also that there was no photo of the materials that I used but I do remember that I used:

• 3ply mercerized cotton in old rose color
• 2mm crochet hook
• scissor

PROCEDURE

1st layer - I started it with 18 chains then DC on the 15th chain down to the 1st chain. On the first chain, I made 3DC-chain1-3DC (this will be the very top of our cup) then worked to the other side, 1DC on all stitches.

2nd & 3rd layer - chain 2 and make 1DC on every stitch except on the very top which I made the 3DC-chain1-3DC.

4th to 9th layer - I just repeat the procedure except that I made a 2DC-chain1-2DC on the very top of our cup.

By the way, I'm making a small bra cup size.

Then I made some SC on the bottom area of our bra cup then continue making more chains on the end of our cup measuring at least 25 inches long, as it will serve as our ties, then SC all the way backward.

I also made the other cup with the same pattern as our 1st cup and joined them.

Note: There was an inch distance between the two cups so we could still crochet the design in between.

Here, I began working on the middle, where you can see a design from in between the cups throughout the chest and neck area.

After that, I made again a 20-inch string attached to every upper end of our top. And made some ruffled crochet stitches on the lower portion of our crop top.

This design is best for ladies who want to hide their belly fat. 😅✌️ Just make sure to extend the ruffled stitches down to cover those baby fats.

I already made this kind of crop top before in different colors and find it easy to remake. But I forgot how many hours and days did I finished this one but I think it will only take 2 days on the making.

If you want to do this crop top in bigger size, just increase the # of layers of your cup.

So after this post will published, I can finally delete the images and hope for a bigger storage for pictures and videos of my pattern making. By the way, as of this moment I only have 1909 pictures (from 5000+) and 5 videos left.

And that's all for today ladies. I hope you had fun with today's tutorial.

Enjoy your day and God bless everyone.
