Exy Crochet Crop Top Pattern, consists of X Stitches, Mesh, Neon Multi Color Row Sections, Textured Short Sleeveless PDF Summer Tank, Hippie Gypsy Retro, Worked in one piece, Intermediate

The Exy Crop Top is made up of sections of X stitches and cross over X netting (hence the pattern name!) in alternating colors to give this cute crop top eye appeal and stitch definition.

Beginning working from the bottom, after mastering the first 2 sections, the rest of the top is straightforward: continue the rows up to the neck hole, complete the special neck hole row, begin working down the opposite side in the same manner as the first side, connect the finishing rows to the first side at the beginning and end of each row to create armholes, and add a finished edge!
