Crochet Lace Bustier Pattern PDF: Cotton Pull-On Crop Top (Instant Download)

Make a summer-friendly, pull-on lace bustier in breathable 100% cotton. You’ll crochet two separate cups, join them at center, then build a circular body from the cup bottoms—no back ties; it slides on over the head. The guide cleans up the video logic into clear U.S. terms with no abbreviations and uses measure-as-you-go checkpoints for fit.

You’ll make

2 shaped cups with an oval tip increase

A circular underbust/body (V + seven-treble panels)

Two slim slip-stitch cord straps

What’s inside (PDF)

Step-by-step: cup foundation → tip increases → center join → underbust ring → body rounds (framework + repeats) → decorative edging → straps

Fit by centimeters: bust/underbust measuring, chain-ring ease, try-on points

Options: edging A (simple picot) or edging B (showy long-treble + picot)

Skill level
Easy–Intermediate (chain, slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, treble crochet, picot)

Materials

100% cotton yarn (subtle-sheen cotton also works)

2.5 mm hook (use 2.0–2.25 mm if you crochet loosely; 3.0 mm for a firmer fabric)

Scissors & tapestry needle

Measuring tape (bust, underbust, length)

Optional: steam iron/spray bottle for light blocking

Sizing & Fit (sample references)

Bust: 83 cm • Underbust: 74 cm

Single cup height: ≈18.5 cm (two cups ≈37 cm wide)

Target pull-on body circumference: ≈80–81 cm (underbust + ease so it passes over shoulders)

Cups are grown by rows; keep trying on for coverage. Plan the body to underbust + 4–6 cm ease.

Construction highlights

Cups: Chain 17 base; keep the oval using “two half double crochet, chain 1, two half double crochet” at the tip each row.

Join: Seam inner edges across ≈10 sts for symmetry.

Underbust ring: Relaxed chain ring (sample 90); 2 rounds half double crochet; pick up along cup bases (≈35 each).

Body rounds: Alternate V (treble, chain 3, treble) with panels of seven treble; repeat for desired length.

Edging: Option A simple picot; Option B long-treble + picot for a scalloped look.

Straps: Dense slip-stitch cords (≈38–39 cm), attach on front marks and ≈14 cm apart on back.
