Steps to Create the Halter Top

Start with a Slip Knot and Foundation Chain
- Begin by making a slip knot.
- Create a foundation chain long enough to span from one armpit to the other (74 chains or as per your sizing).
Row 1 – Double Crochet
- Chain 2, turn your work, and skip the first stitch.
- Place a double crochet in the next stitch and continue across the row until the end.
Row 2 & 3 – Repetition
- Chain 2, turn your work, and repeat the double crochet process.
- Continue until you complete three rows of double crochet.
Row 4 – Alteration for Armholes
- Count 25 stitches from one side and crochet to the marked spot, leaving 24 stitches in the middle.
- Chain 27 to create an armhole, ensuring the chain isn’t twisted.
- Start double crocheting across and repeat evenly for consistency.
Additional Rows for Top Length
- Crochet back and forth until you reach your desired top length.
- The tutor completed 13 rows of double crochet.
Back Corset
- Chain 2, turn, and crochet two double crochets in every stitch to create shell-like spacing.
- Chain 4, skip 2 stitches, and work into the third stitch.
- Repeat this pattern to create the corset gaps.
Tie Edges with Single Crochet
- Chain 1, turn, and use single crochet (two in every chain space and one in each double crochet) to finish the edge neatly.
- Fasten off yarn.
Making the Back Tie
- Create a foundation chain of approximately 200 stitches to use as the corset tie.
- Feed this tie through every alternate loop in the back corset to lace the top together.
Decorative Flower Creation (Optional)
- Use a foundation single crochet chain (45 for smaller flowers, 85 for larger).
- Chain 5 and single crochet into every fifth stitch to create loops.
- Form petals in each loop using single, half double, double, and treble crochet stitches.
- Curl and sew the flower together using a tapestry needle.
Attach Flower
- Position the flower at the center top or halter strap and tie securely.
- Leave it detachable if desired for flexibility in styling.
