Crochet Summer Top Women, pdf, English in standard U.S. terms

Do you like to crochet sweaters or summer tops? Are you desperately looking for an easy to follow crochet pattern?
With these instructions you can crochet your own top for next summer. This crochet tee shirt is calculated for all women's sizes. The pattern is therefore also suitable for plus sizes.
In addition to instructions, you will receive valuable tips on how to crochet a well-fitting shirt yourself: the importance of the right gauge and choosing the right size.

This summer top is crocheted entirely in the shell pattern stitch, which has been my favorite stitch pattern for a long time. The name "Muschel Tee" is made up of the German word for shell and the English word "tee" for t-shirt.
And another pattern for babies and children is also available.
This shirt is worked in the round, bottom up. A sewing needle is only needed to weave in the ends. The sleeve seam is closed with slip stitches and your hook.

Would you like to crochet this top for your child too?
There is also a pattern for children in my shop: Link will follow as soon as the pattern is published.
Or the bundle of women's and children's patterns at a bargain price: Link will follow as soon as the instructions are published.
