Tee-ser is a chunky, crochet mesh tee that stitches up fast, is easily customizable, and is a versatile layering piece throughout the year. It looks cute over a 3/4-length sleeve top paired with a skirt, cozy over a long-sleeved thermal with jeans, and chic with a cami and wide-leg trousers.

This crochet top is great for beginners making their first garment, or for more seasoned crocheters who want to stitch up something stylish in a flash. Whatever your level, my step-by-step video tutorial is available to keep you company while you create.

Tee-ser is meant to be boxy and is designed with 8″-12″ of ease. It’s designed for a cropped fit, but length can easily be added or removed. Both back and front are worked the same, with a simple, 2-row repeat, followed by a little shoulder shaping. To finish this top, front and back pieces are seamed at the shoulders and sides, then half-double-crochet arm bands are added.

Have fun, you little Tees-es!
