Betty top is a quick and simple summer crochet project. It wears well with shorts, pants and skirts, and is suitable for blazing hot summer days on its own, or a layering piece for cooler weather. I have made one for me and one for may daughter, playing differently with contrast colours, but it will look great in one colour, or multiple colours as well – you fantasy is the limit.

This is a PDF pattern only, not a finished object.
The pattern is available for free on my blog, and this is a ad-free pdf version. I love sharing my patterns and knowledge for free, but by buying a paid version you’ll help me support and develop my website, and share more patterns with everyone.

So far the pattern has been tested in sizes S, L and 2XL. I’d love to hear from people who make other sizes in regards to sizing feedback – this is my first garment pattern that has been graded to so many different sizes.
