    One of the quintessential crochet clothing items for women is the summer halter top. The granny square is the most classic crochet motif, so it's perfect to combine the two to create a design like this one. This is the type of top that you're sure to get positive feedback on at any summer music festival.

    The granny square forms the core of this crochet dress as well, but it uses a large granny square instead of a set of motifs, for a fun retro design. The rest of the dress is built in granny stripes. The simple crochet pattern is written to show you how to build it to any size that suits you, making it a great choice for a matching mommy and me crochet pattern!

    This sweater uses granny stripes for the body of the design with tighter ribbed detail at the top and bottom. It is a cozy cropped sweater with three-quarter sleeves. It comes with the option to crochet the top in two different ways - either as a boat neck or with a split sailor collar. You'll probably want to try both!

    This free crochet sweater pattern was written in multiple parts as a CAL. There are links to all of the parts on the Ravelry page, which will take you to the separate post on Furls Crochet blog where you can access each set of instructions to complete the pattern.

    If you know how to read crochet symbol charts then you will be able to use this free pattern to make a sleeved tube top. The design is more versatile than you might think; wear it over a sleeveless dress or as a second layer over a long-sleeved shirt for a less revealing design. Alternatively, it works well as an alternative to a bikini top at the beach.

    Diamond Crochet Dress

    The diamond shapes on this pretty pink dress are easily made simply by skipping stitches in the right spots. This pattern wasn't originally written in English and can be difficult for a beginner to follow but if you're an advanced crocheter then you'll find that it makes sense. You can adjust the crochet pattern to fit different sizes. It's worked in panels that are stitched together to create the draped shape of the final dress design.
