Simple Boho Style Crochet Crop Top Pattern With Fringe
Making Tasseled Summer Sweater
We continue with summer knitting models. Next up is a sweater recipe that we can easily knit for everyone, big or small, and use it with love. It is a wonderful example that we will knit as summer blouse models. We can even use it in summer knitting models by adding sleeves. You can wear it on the blouse with or without tassels on the hem.
You can use mercerized threads, linen threads, cotton threads for making fringed knit sweaters. It would be correct to use suitable threads for summer. It is necessary to use non-sweating, bacteria-free threads. If we talk about tassel knitting models, we have a very stylish gilet model. You can reach the details from the knitting gilet example. We will talk about 2 different recipes from crocheted summer knits and motif knitting models. Knitted summer blouses in 2 different models are 2 magnificent models that you will like very much. One of the knitted bustier models, one with a motif and the other with a plain weave. Now let’s talk about the tasseled summer sweater that we will like very much and will complete in a short time.
How to Knit a Tasseled Sweater?
Our motifs on the lower sides are an example of the 3 handrail groups that complete the motif on the upper part. Tasseled summer sweater is one of the easy knitting models. The lady begged, the gentleman liked it, it is a very stylish and very popular summer knitting.
It is a great model to be used on dresses, t-shirts, singlets, and to be used with shirts. Let’s examine how to knit a sweater step by step with pictures.
It is an easy and very stylish model. Those who are new to knitting can easily knit. Let’s watch the making of summer sweater with tassels from the video. Let’s knit for ourselves, our little girls, our young girls.

Sew The Squares Together
To sew the squares together, you can use which ever method you prefer. Using the tail that we left earlier to sew, I place the right side of the squares facing up and I’m going to sew on the right side. Check picture below and remember that the pictures shown is size small, if you’re making different sizes, the number of the squares will be different. After you’ve sewn all squares together, you can weave all the ends now or you can do it later.

- For the body we’re going to use color A
- Place the squares that we’ve sewn right side facing up.
Row 1 (RS): Add new yarn into the right corner the square at the ch sp. Then, ch 3 (count as 1 dc), 2 dc into same sp, *ch 1, 3 dc into next ch sp*, REP from *TO* into each ch sp across. Total of 63( 79, 95, 111, 127, 143 ) st including the ch sp. Check picture below
Row 2 (WS): Turn, ch 4 (count as 1 dc and ch 1 sp), *3 dc into ch 1 sp, ch 1* Rep from *TO* across, end with 1 dc into the third ch. Total of 63( 79, 95, 111, 127, 143 ) st including the ch sp. Check picture below

Cut the yarn and leave about 14-20″ long tail. Check picture below
Joining The Top Pieces Together
Sew the shoulder seams together
Take the back and front panel, place them with the correct side facing down, then we’ll sew on the wrong side. Using the tail that we left earlier, sew along the top of the shoulder seam areas together using method of choice. Check picture below
Sew The Sides Together
Fold your top in half at the shoulder seams with the right side facing each other, we’ll sew on the wrong side. Cut a new strand of yarn 18-24 inches long, enough to sew the side seams up to the arm pit. Start sewing from the bottom up to the side seam about 5 and a half inches for all the sizes, using method of choice. *If you want smaller arm holes, just sew more. If you want bigger arm holes, just sew less but make sure that both sides are even. Check picture below
Crochet Around The Sleeve Edges
Note: We’re going to crochet into the end of the row of the sleeve edge (sp for reference)
Turn your top right side facing out, add new yarn into the arm pit corner, then ch 1 (do not count as a st), 2 hdc into each sp around the sleeve edge, cut the yarn and weave all the ends. Both sides are made the same. Check picture below
Adding Fringes (Optional)
Cut 128( 160, 192, 224, 256, 288 ) pieces of 12″ of yarn/fringe and if you’d like a shorter or longer fringe, just cut them shorter or longer but remember that the length of the finished fringe will be almost haft of the length that you cut. For example, I cut my fringe 12″ long and my fringe will be 6″ long before I trim the ends so my finished fringe is about 5 – 5.5″ after I trim the ends.
Fringe (Row 1)
Step 1: Take 4 pieces of fringe and fold in half. See picture 1
Step 2: Insert into the ch sp and make sure that the loop is big enough to pass ends through. See pictures 2 and 3
Step 3: Pass the ends through the loop and tighten. See picture 4, 5 and 6
Repeat steps 1 – 3 into each ch sp around. See pictures 7 and 8
Fringe (Row 2) *making the knots
Step 1: Take half of the fringe from the left and right fringe from each fringe “group” or tassel. These will combine to make the finished fringe tassel. See picture 1
Step 2: Make a knot. I make a knot about 1 inch below the first row of the fringe knots. See picture 2
Step 3: Tighten up. See picture 3
Repeat steps 1 – 3 around. See pictures 4, 5, 6, and 7
Next, you just need to trim all the ends and make sure it’s nice and even.
