I love it !!! Seriously, your skills are amazing yet you explain your process in such an approachable way . I'm new to knitting and honestly what got me started was the mother top you managed to recreate perfectly . Could you provide a full on tutorial on how to knit it ? That would made my day , heck my whole year even (I want to wear it really badly at the eras tour !! )
Actually, one of my subscribers reached out and asked how to knit Mother top. I googled it, and I also fell in love with it. So, we were knitting top together. I helped her while figuring how to make it to look as close as possible to the original. İn original it is machine knit. She managed very good and is happy. I could make a walkthrough video, because not sure am I ready to make detailed video yet. I made it first time too. İf you have WhatsApp, we could chat there and I could share the notes. This way will be faster than I upload video of this top. What do you think?
@@kristinavirka that is so kind of you !! It means a lot to me that you care and you offer your help. But not gonna lie im a pretty slow ( mostly visual ) learner and I wouldn't want to burden you with that. If you could make a short video describing your process or your patterns that would be awesome ! Also I know a lot of people , mostly taylor swift fans , that would find the video super helpful . No pressure though you can upload it whenever
@@kristinavirka Aww really happy for her !! And now thanks to you, many more of us are going to the eras tour with killer outfits . Honestly thank you i am convinced you are an actual angel . Take your time !
Hi there! Well, I am ready to share a post with guidelines for this top. First, I posted it in written format, then will do a video. Here it is: www.stylishknitting.com/knit-crochet-crop-top/ Let me know if you have questions.
Hi! Everything is possible but will take time to knit another top for the video. If you have WhatsApp or other messanger, I could guide you, show techniques. I will do knit a long. I have done that already. That would be also free for now and much faster. Also, at the same time I would film and make a video tutorial for UA-cam.
@@kristinavirka Thank you so much for the offer, but seeing as I am a recent beginner, I don't think I have the skill to make it quite yet. But I will keep practicing and maybe one day I can do your pattern justice.
@@lisataylorsversion could be possible that you are very talented beginner! The crochet stuff could be replaced with knit pattern. Also, you can start by practising a Chevron pattern. You know where to find me, when you feel ready!
@@mariainesmarques2870 hi! The fastest way I can help you is to guide you online, on WhatApp, for example. Or, other messenger. To make video is too long. This top I made first time and helped to knit as well. So, guidance is tested and it works. Now will be even better. Agreed? No costs. Meanwhile i will film the process
Hi Kristina. My thread got lost in the mail and then many things happened. I finally repurchased the yarn and I am really looking forward to start. Have you made progress with the tutorial.
Hi! I used 4 colors, 330 gr in total. Skein is 250m (273yards) per 100 gr. For size S-M: Blue, pink, beige - 1 ball each (not full), and 2 balls of white. In total I used 825 metersnof ysrn (900yards)
Hi! While I am waiting for my new yarn (set to arrive jan 8th), I already started practicing the chevron pattern and looking closely at your blog post for the top. I already have a couple of doubts… can you help and mentor me? Thank you so much. I wish you a very happy 2025
@@mariainesmarques2870 Hi! Yes, of course you can ask me questiins, I will try my best to answer. Actually, we could movebour communication on messenger (whatsapp, fb), will be faster.
@@mariainesmarques2870 i used turkish Himalaya brand, bamboo/cotton blend Bamboo Deluxe. If you look up online, there are the colors listed. 4 colors I used. Cream, blue, sand and pink dessert as i rememeber
@@kristinavirka I just order the yarn. I'll start working in september and I'll let you know! :) I Order two of each and three of the cream one. Will it be enough?
@@mariainesmarques2870 ok, great, let me know when you start! What size will you knit and will you use exactly Himalaya Bamboo Deluxe? Then it would be too much, 1 color each, except cream - 2 balls. They are 100gr balls
@@kristinavirka I am using the same yarn. But I will need to go size L/XL. I'll have to do the calculations using the swatch! I am so excited about this!
Nice colors...!
Love it. It's beautiful. I wish i knew how to knit however I crochet.
Hi, that's not a isssue. I saw these tops 100% crochet too. Using similar wave pattern but in crochet.
@@kristinavirka I will try to do knitting anytime soon. I saw one crocheted of the same piece but not as beautiful as what you've made. Cheers
