Crochet Tee Pattern- Magnolia Tee

The Magnolia Tee crochet pattern is lightweight, has open stitching, and is quite easy to make!

Pattern Inspiration

The Magnolia Tee crochet pattern is inspired by the Magnolia Shrug, a unique shawl design with sleeves!

A simple tee design then came to mind. Something that was very easy to make and could be thrown over a cami for spring and summer.

Working in the round from the bottom up makes this crochet top very simple to create!

I love how this crochet tee pattern turned out! It is simple but so stylish and cute!

Pattern Details

This tee is worked from the bottom up, in the round, and then worked in rows to create the armholes. There’s no sleeves to add, and just a bit of seaming at the shoulders.

The Magnolia Tee crochet pattern comes in women’s sizes XS-5X. You can dress this top up with a maxi skirt and wedges, or keep it casual with jeans and flip flops!

This top can also be adjusted easily to get the look you love! This top is a truly versatile peace of clothing for you and your little one!

The Yarn

This crochet top pattern uses a lightweight DK (#3) weight yarn. You can also get by with a thicker sport (#2) weight, just be sure to check gauge!

I used Lion Brand Coboo yarn which is a cotton bamboo blend. It is very comfortable to wear and is a great yarn for warmer weather makes!

Some other yarns that would work for this project are:

Hobbii Acacia

Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK

Mary Maxim Sunrise
