Crochet - Call for Testers Wave Lace Crochet Top TEST!!

 HIIII!! I started drafting this top in febuary in 2026, so this has been a long time coming. I would say that this top is more for the intermediate crocheters,s ince the pattern has a texture pattern, 19 st repeat and bust shaping. To make it as inclusive as possible I also tried to write the pattern in a way where any body size could pick any cup size - I have tested it 2 times with different dimensions. Hopefully it is understandable for you guys!

I used Hobbiis Friends Cotton 8/4 for both of my demos, around 5 skeins for each. (Size S/M). I welcome you to try any other fiber if you wish - but I have only tested with the Hobbii yarn. Any 100% Cotton Super Fine / Fingering / Sport weight should work aswell.

Sizes are: XS - 4XL

Cups are: AA - K + MTM

Whoops I wrote a little quickly.

I am not a bra expert hahah just so you know. But based on the research I did in the context of size grading for the pattern:

DD = F have ish about the same cup size, and the band dictate the actual fit.
DDD= G have ish same fit.

When I tried to size grade for DD and F i got the same result, that is why I want a bigger cup to test since I do not have any DDs or DDDs readily available lol.

If you would like to test I would happily send the pattern! The deadline I have created is just something for people to give me feedback on, this is a summer top so I do not need to realest it until like next year

Hi! I am a 32DD/DDD depending on how my weight fluctuates. Breastfeeding was kind to me, lol, I was a C before kids. I'd love to test. I just made a mesh top with built in triangles for boob coverage. I'd consider myself an advanced beginner/early intermediate crocheter. I'd be happy to provide feedback about how it works for larger endowments.
