The Tea Top

The Tea Top is a fresh, modern take on the ripple stitch. Worked from two identical T‑shaped panels (yes, pun intended) and designed for makers who want crochet they can actually wear out. With its adaptable sleeves, made‑to‑measure fit, and colourful design, this top is light, comfortable, and perfect for everyday outfits throughout spring and summer. **Skill Level** **Intermediate (also suitable for adventurous beginners)** The ripple stitch repeat becomes intuitive once it clicks, making this a relaxing and rhythmic project after the first few rows. **Fit & Customization ** This tutorial‑style pattern is fully made‑to‑measure, allowing you to create a custom fit for any size. You can use any yarn weight and a compatible hook, making it easy to adapt to your materials and personal style. **Key Features** * Made‑to‑measure construction utailored to your body * Step‑by‑step tutorial with clear instructions * Works with any yarn and hook size * Choose the length of your sleeve * Wearable everyday crochet (not just festival style) **Materials Required** * Yarn of your choice * Crochet hook compatible with your yarn * Scissors, tapestry needle, measuring tape **This is a made‑to‑measure pattern, so yardage will depend on your individual measurements and chosen yarn.
