Hi there, if you’re here for your first time, welcome! I just finished a new crochet tee pattern.
So as the pattern contains tapestry crochet it is considered that this is not for very very beginner, but tapestry crochet only uses basic stitches, such as single crochet, half double crochet, or double crochet. So, this technique is totally accessible to beginner crocheters.
It’s a simple two panel project, but you still end up with cute summer crochet top / vest.
And to decorate the edges I recommend to do a blanket stitch edging and create the eyelashes (optional).
If you’re interested in purchasing this crochet tee pattern or any of my other patterns in a downloadable, printable PDF format, they’re available for purchase on my Payment Page below.
A pattern is created in the fabric by changing yarn/colors multiple times within a row By following a chart where each square represents a double crochet, you will know when to change colors
I recommend to highlighte your size to avoid mistakes.
Materials:
Yarn Weight 2: Fine-Sport ( I used yarn with lurex) Grey 200 (250,250,300,300,350,350,400,400) g or 700 (875, 875, 10501 1050, 1225,1225,1400, 1400) yards
Black 50g or 175 yards
Pink 50g or 175 yards
A little bright pink for blanket stitch
2.50mm Crochet Hook or other to archive gauge
Yarn Needle
Gauge
Crochet Gauge (4in x 4in / 10cm) (blocked) 20 x 11 in Double Crochet remember to check your gauge!
Sizes:
XS/S, M/ L, XL/ 2X, 3X/ 4X
Finished Measurements:

Front Panel
Make the base chain 102 (122, 142, 162). The first 99 (119, 139, 159) chain stitches make the foundation chain, while the last 3 make the turning chain) in gray color.
ROW1: DC into the fourth chain from the hook and work 1 DC into each of the next 99 (119, 139, 159) sts, turn ROW 2: CH3 (counts as first st), DC in each of next 99 (119, 139, 159) sts, turn
XS/S, M/L: No rows ROWS 3-4: CH3 (counts as first st), DC in each of next __ (__, 139, 159) sts, turn

Leaf
Using the grey yarn, make the base chain 5+1 Rnd : HDC in 2nd ch from hook, DC2 in next 2 st. HDC in next st, SC in next st. Now continue this Rnd to finish the circle, working into the back of the ch. CH3 and working along the other side of the ch – SC, HDC in next st, DC2 in next 2 st, HDC in next st, CH; join slip stitch into first CH (15sts). Finish.
Construction
Find the 16 stitches in on each side
The main body is 110 st and the pocket is 80 st, so find 15 stitches on each side and place the markers. Start by sewing just the bottom edge of the pocket. Sew the entire bottom edge (all 80 sts) to the corresponding stitches on the apron back. Then sew the right and left edge and divide the pocket into two parts by sewing in the middle (if you want two pockets instead of a large one). Then sew the apple and finish with crab stitch into each stitch around the apron (and pockets).
