checkered bikini top crochet tutorial

[@user-yk6jm8zk8g]

Around around 13:54 she says to continue into the turn for 3 DC but when I counted she only went up 2 DC. So for those who were confused, cuz same here, that’s what the issue was. She said 3 DC but she did 2 DC

The pattern for this starting at the 5th row started to be very confusing for me. I do love the top but the introductions got scrambled somehow.

Girl I tried crocheting your tutorial for this, but just like with others I messed up around 12:00 mark because of the cut edit ): one side looked so cute but the other side looked off and didn’t align. Can you recreate this tutorial?

“new streaks” his first words to me and “sure” were my first

i am disappointed with this yt video tutorial. it is a lovely pattern but the last row's instructions were messed up. luckily i could work out where it went wrong and i fixed it, the final piece looks lovely. the 17:50 part jumps back to the part she just did and she switches the colour to green instead of carrying on in cream. what i did was basically undid what i just did for a few stitches so it looked like what is in the video and carried on from there. doubt that makes sense but hope it helps some people a bit more considering the person isnt replying to comments to help :)

[@madeleineisabeleidhagenlop1940]

Hi Dana! Thank you for your tutorial, I appreciate your instructions! I wonder though if it goes well to swim with own-crocheted bikinis. Do you have any experience of using them to swim with? Soon I would like to make bikinis that I can use for swimming! :)

[@un1c0rnpuk3]

i know this comment is old but acrylic yarn is good for bikinis!
