This tutorial is for a simple, airy, and dramatic drapey bell sleeve top with an easy relaxed body and big swoopy sleeves. It uses basic crochet stitches and explains how to manage stitch markers and tie a secure knot. The pattern starts with front and back panels made from rectangles, seamed at the shoulders to create a crew neck. Side seams form armholes, and bell sleeves are built directly from the armholes with even, balanced increases to create a flowy flare.
