    I need to know how to make a cute crop top
    Community Answer
    First you need to figure out how short you want your crop top to be. I like to cut mine at a slant so it is longer on one side, or with it shorter in the front and longer in the back. Sometimes it is a good idea to cut a little off the sleeves or cut them into cap sleeves or just go sleeveless. I usually don't hem the bottom, but it might be a good idea to hem the sleeves if you cut them.

    What can I do if I cut the sleeves too short and don't want a tank top?
    Community Answer
    You can either wear it as-is, or partially cut down the shoulder seam and wear it as a cold-shouldered top.

    How do I make sure I don't cut my t-shirt crooked?

    Use a ruler and a piece of chalk. Lay out your shirt flat (ironing it will help with this) and turn it inside out. Then use the ruler and chalk to draw a straight line access it. This is what I have always done and it works really well for me. Don't use liquid chalk it colored chalk!

    It is recommended to do so, as it will prevent the top from fraying or curling.
