Crochet Polo Shirt

Materials Needed:

Drops Saffron Yarn in four colors (fine weight to sport weight)
3.5 mm crochet hook
Scissors
Yarn needles
Two stitch markers
Tape measure

Measurements and Sizing:

The example top is 20 inches wide and 18 inches long.
Adjust the number of grams and meters of yarn used based on your size adjustments.

Pattern Instruction:

Starting the Back Panel:

Begin with a slip knot.
Chain a multiple of 3 + 5 to the desired length (e.g., 80 chains for an 18-inch top length).
Skip 5 chains, then work three double crochet into the next chain.
Skip 2 chains, and in the next chain, work another set of three double crochets.
Repeat the pattern along the chain.
Use various colors per row following your chosen color sequence inspired by Taylor Swift's dress.
Continue with rows, following a simple double crochet cluster pattern throughout.

Making the Front Panel:

The front panel involves creating a neckline with increases and decreases.
Start with the same number of chains as the back panel.
Follow the pattern until you need to create the gap for the neckline. This involves deducting a certain number of stitches in the middle based on your width.

Divide the remaining stitches into two sections and work each side separately for the shoulder areas, incorporating increases and decreases as necessary.

Constructing the Top:

Sew the front and back panels together at the shoulders and sides, leaving openings for the arms.
Create sleeves directly onto the body or make them separately and then sew them on.
