Note: For the red and white bikini, use white yarn to crochet the base row and the strap of the bikini. Use red yarn for the triangles. CROCHET BIKINI TOP: Crochet chain stitch base follows the crochet pattern. With 2 separate strands of yarn, crochet 2 triangles side by side in the middle of the base strip.

Row 14: Repeat row 13 but this time forming the triangles in the holes be­tween the triangles of the row before. You will have 11 tri­angles in total. You need to crochet the double cro­chet from the third chain. When finish­ing the round, you will need to crochet two chains to be able to continue cro­cheting the next round. To start dou­ble crocheting, go around the hook with the thread. Introduce the hook with the thread inside the third chain and go around the hook again. Take out the hook with three threads. Go around the hook with the thread and pass it through the first two threads. Go around the hook again and pass it through the rest of the threads. Crochet Hooks: Use a crochet hook size to match your yarn. Common hook sizes for crochet bikinis are 3.5 mm (E/4), 4 mm (G/6), or 4.5 mm (7). If you require a tighter stitch, you may size down from that recommended on the yarn label.

By using the yarn left from the base, continue to crochet around the piece to complete the bikini top.Make 3 chains. Wrap the hook and introduce it into the next stitch, wrap the hook with the thread again and pull it out, wrap the hook yet again and then pull it out of the first two slings, repeat this twice more until you have 4 slings on your hook. Wrap the hook and pull it out of the first two slings; repeat this until you have only one sling left on the hook. * If you’ve been wanting to make a bikini to fit YOUR BODY, this is the bikini for you! The bikini top has detailed instructions (and video tutorial) on how to make cups that fit YOUR breasts, so whether you’re a size AA or H, you’re covered ;) Yardages for the top will vary based on the amount of coverage you want and the size and shape of your breasts, but I would recommend at least 150 yards for those who typically wear cup sizes A-D, and at least 200 yards for cups DD and higher.
