Crochet Barbie Top Pattern

After some seeing some people were interested in free crochet barbie clothes, I set out to make a few available.  This is the second one.

This crochet barbie top is worked from the bottom, up, and then one final edging row is done on the bottom.  It uses two snap fasteners in the back.  More views of the top on barbie are pictured below.

For this top, you will need to know how to single crochet, double crochet, how to do chains, how to make a puff stitch, and how to make a picot.
