Get your Creative Juices Flowing

If you are familiar with my designs then you know that my main goal as a crochet designer is to inspire your creativity.

This crochet top pattern has a lot of opportunities for you to get inspired and experiment with creative decisions that will result in a final pattern unique to you that expresses your artistic aesthetic.

The first creative decision you will make is the color. And color changes everything in this design.

I used funky desert colors for my design but you can really get creative and create an ocean view with blues, a forest scene with greens, a garden scene with pastels, even a night scene with dark colors and a moon rising in the background. Fun right?!

Scroll down to the bottom of this post to see the testers’ inspiring color decisions.

And to help you make your color decisions I drew up a coloring page for you. The page depicts the crochet t shirt in black and white. Simply print out the page and color in the scene with your color combo idea. This way you can see if your colors work before you buy your yarn.

I’ve also provided a creative opportunity for you with the sleeve. Included are instructions for two different sleeves. One is a cuffed sleeve that you see on the tee I made. The other is a sleeve with three stripes (a chance for more color mixing and matching).

I absolutely loved the colouring in page with the four options.

A Unique Crochet Top Pattern

This crochet t shirt actually started off with a whole other concept in mind. I wanted to make a graphic tee of a landscape but using intarsia.

I even got so far as to order the yarn and start stitching up the tee. But when the tee started to emerge from my hook it just wasn’t as unique as I was hoping for and I wasn’t enjoying stitching the intarsia.

It’s very important to me that my patterns look great AND are fun to make. I knew I had to change direction.

As I was staring at my sketch of mountains I realized they looked just like a wave stitch. When I started stitching up the idea I knew I had a winner because I’ve never seen a landscape/seascape depicted on a crochet tee in this way before. It also looked really cool and was enjoyable to crochet.

When you wear this tee around the city you’ll definitely get compliments from other like minded creatives. And crocheters in the know will recognize how special and unique your handmade top is.

I really liked the design and the potential of the choosing different color schemes to make very different beautiful landscapes.

Works up quickly

Another perk to this crochet top pattern is it works up quickly. This project is NOT one of those big commitments that will take you all year. You’ll find the hdc made with DK weight yarn flies off your hook. And because it has short sleeves you won’t get stuck on sleeve island. Hooray!

This crochet t shirt project has a nice mix of areas that you can crochet while relaxing without having the pattern in front of you and the mountain section which is really fun to see come together while following the interesting mix of stitches stack up on top of each other. It will provide that fun little challenge you look for in projects.

Easy to follow and great lay out.
