Meet the Circle T-Top
Master the innovative Circle T-Top pattern through center-out construction that creates a stunning garment with integrated sleeves worked continuously from a single foundation row. This comprehensive workshop guides you through foundation single crochet technique forming the structural centerline, two methods for creating professional first double crochets (eliminating the disappointing gaps traditional patterns produce), and the dramatic DC V-stitch half-round that forms your elegant shirttail hem. Learn critical yarn selection principles focusing on tight twist for garment stability. Then master blocking and seaming techniques that create invisible joins along shoulders, underarms, and sides.
With inclusive sizing from small through 5X (32"-60" bust), this versatile open boat-neck design works beautifully for layering, standalone wear, or as a beach cover-up, while the radial construction method eliminates complex shaping and ensures your finished garment maintains its professional drape through years of wear.
