About
Designed with warm weather in mind, the #SizeInclusive Tyndall Top is a beginner-friendly, sleeveless crochet top, featuring a curved neckline and knit-like ribbing along the bottom hem. The Tyndall Top is crocheted flat in two panels using two strands of yarn held double. The incredible drape is due to the bamboo fiber content of this yarn; even when held double, the resulting fabric remains flowy, feeling breathable and slinky without the bulk.

Materials
Yarn: DK held double (acts as worsted/aran weight)—Lion Brand Truboo in Blue
- 100% Rayon from Bamboo
- 241 yds (220 m) per 3.5-oz (100-g) skein
- Find this yarn on lionbrand.com or visit yarnsub.com to find comparable substitutes.
Substitute Lion Brand Truboo with a similar DK weight yarn, held double stranded. For a similar drape to the sample shown, choose a yarn with similar fiber content. You can also match gauge with most worsted weight yarns held single stranded. If using a thicker weight held single stranded, you will need only half the yardage that is listed below.
Yardage: 6 (6, 7, 8, 9) (9, 10, 11, 12) skeins, or
- 1250 (1400, 1625, 1725, 1925) (2100, 2300, 2425, 2650) yds
- 1143 (1281, 1486, 1578, 1761) (1921, 2104, 2218, 2424) m
Hook: Size U.S. I/9 (5.5 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge
Notions: Tapestry needle, several locking stitch markers to help with seaming
Gauge
Main Gauge: 4 x 4” (10 x 10 cm) = 17.5 sts and 17 rows in main stitch pattern; where each sc and each ch counts as a stitch.
For Swatch:
Ch 22.
Row 1: Sc in second ch, ch 1, sk next ch, sc in next ch; rep from to end of row, turn. 11 sc; 10 ch-sp
Row 2: Ch 1, sc in first sc, ch 1, sk next ch-sp, sc in next sc; rep from to end of row, turn.
Rep Row 2 until you have at least 20 rows worked. If you plan on blocking your finished top, block your swatch before measuring.
Measure the inner 4” (10 cm) of your swatch to get the most accurate measurement. When measuring the stitch gauge, 4” (10 cm) should equal 17 full stitches (including single crochets and chains) and approximately half of the next stitch.
Bottom Ribbing Gauge: Although my sample used the same 5.5mm hook for the entire piece, I’m including the gauge for the bottom ribbing as well in case you would like to swatch for both stitch patterns. Depending on your tension, you may need to use different hooks for the bottom ribbing and main stitch pattern. The width of the bottom ribbing is the same width as the top portion of this design.
Gauge: 4 x 4” (10 x 10 cm) = 20 sts and 17.5 rows in yo-slst.
For swatch:
Follow pattern as written in Front Panel-Bottom Ribbing until you have at least 20 rows worked.

The schematic shows the finished garment measurements. This top is designed to be worn with approximately 0 to 2 inches (0–5 cm) of positive ease. When choosing a size, find the bust measurement here that equals approximately 0 to 2 inches (0-5 cm) larger than your actual bust measurement and make that size. For reference, the model has a 34-inch (86-cm) bust and is wearing a size small with a finished garment bust measurement of 34 inches (86 cm), worn with no ease.

Pattern Notes
Skill Level: Easy
Sizing: This top is written in nine sizes as follows: XS (S, M, L, XL) (2X, 3X, 4X, 5X). Make sure to follow the numbers for your size only.
Stitch Counts: Stitch counts are listed after each row. If no stitch count is given, there has been no change since the previous row. If only one number is provided, it applies to all sizes.
Reversible: There is no right side or wrong side; both sides are identical. You choose which side to wear as the “right side.”
Seaming: When seaming your garment, make sure not to pull too tight in order to maintain some stretch, otherwise this seam will pucker during wear.
Turning Chain: The turning chain does not count as a stitch.
Yarn Held Double: This entire piece is worked holding two strands of Truboo together and crocheting as if they were one. You can also use most worsted weight yarns in place of Truboo, held single stranded (requiring half the yardage).
Construction: This top is worked in a front and back panel that get seamed together along the tops of the shoulders and partially seamed together along the sides, leaving space for the armholes. Both panels are worked from the bottom-up, beginning with the bottom ribbing. The front panel splits into two sections to create the deep neckline.
