Zora Top

This crochet pattern comes in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL with options to adapt to your body type or gauge swatch. It is worked vertically, alternating colors for each row while crocheting over the other color yarn. We are working short rows to create the raglan sleeves and shape the top to the curves of your body. This piece is worked continuously without ever cutting the yarn or sewing. I will show you the stitch pattern and short row foundations in a video tutorial. The Zora Top is fully reversible and looks pretty wearing it on either side. Suitable for intermediate to experieced crocheters, that are confident in learning new stitches, as well as following a written pattern. You will need: Sock to sport to DK weight yarn, depending on the thickness and opacity you want for your final product; preferably with some kind of elasticity, i.e. wool percentage. For a size L this pattern uses approximately 300m for each, the dark color and light color yarn 7mm crochet hook or whichever hook size meets gauge. I recommend an inline hook with a sharper tip.
