Peplum tank is such a lovely outfit for teen girls and young women. If you can’t get enough of the first crochet Peplum Tank Top with ribbed lines and lacy stitches I made. You might want to try this one.
Here’s my second crochet design – a flattering, chic style with ombre hues.

Materials: ( I used )
2.75 mm crochet hook
Sport weight yarn: Brown Cream Cafe Latte shade ( about 200 gr for the sample – size M / 150 gr or 656 yds per skein )
( Check out my Yarn shop – free worldwide shipping )
Yarn needle
Scissors
Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each row/ round instead of ch 3. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into the same stitch (counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc into 1st stitch for every first dc of each row/ round, so just choose your best technique 🙂
Special stitches used:
2dc- V stitch: ( 2dc, ch1, 2dc ) into same stitch or space.
This crochet Pineapple Peplum tank top pattern fits size S/M ( chest size: 30 to 34 inches )
Skill level: Experienced
Gauge: 12 double crochet stitches x 5 rows approximately 2 inches ( with materials indicated )
