This handy little list below showcases 5 of the most amazing free crochet summer tops that are beginner friendly and can be made in just a few hours.

When you are first starting out with crochet, making your own clothes sounds amazing and… a bit intimidating. We all usually start with a scarf or a hat, but there is no reason to only crochet accessories if you are fascinated by the idea of a top or a sweater made with your own two hands.
Since we are well into summer here, what could be better than crochet tops! The patterns you will see below are all chosen based on how easy they are and their unique style. They are all wonderful choices, beginner friendly and some of them require just a few hours to complete. I am sure everyone will find something they like based on their body type, needs, and personal taste. So, read on and go get your hooks!
