Crochet Bikini Top | Easy Pattern

[@TheWondabar]

Thankyou so much for this pattern…I made it for my daughter and it fits beautifully! You are a great teacher!

[@electraspy]

Best instructional video for this top, I've seen! The simplest pattern ever can be so aggravating, when its explained poorly. Every one I've printed has had a tiny missing detail. Finally... with your video, this top pattern makes sense & I can whip these up easily now, thank you!

[@rainbowwarrior217]

electraspy Thank you, I'm really glad you were able to follow the tutorial! I had the same problem when trying to learn this pattern, very frustrating and the pattern is amazingly simple :)

[@throttle4593]

I loved your bent tapestry needle. All of mine are the same way.

[@jdquinitchette]

*SOOOO helpful! I can do what I want from here. Thanks.*

[@MewMewPumpkinPie]

How do you get them that round shape? No matter what I do, my cups always turn out slightly pointy which looks a bit like those cone bras from the 50s

[@xxerinxx624]

Loved how clear yet quick this was. Thanks!

[@rainbowwarrior217]

Erin T I'm glad you enjoyed!

[@anoushkaruby]

I love the video I will definitely try it, I've seen other video and tried it but the too doesn't come out how I need it to, now u taught me how to measure to do the cup , thanks , I hope I see a video for a bottom soon

[@DoLiLoLi12]

I really liked the pattern very easy to follow along! I have one more cup to go and the the parts and I'm done!

[@rainbowwarrior217]

I'm glad you could use this :)

[@OfficialNadiHafren]

[@ms.originalnaturehairandma8123]

You are a fabulous teacher

[@michellegaleher5951]

Awesome! I love it. Now I would like for you to give us some info as to how to make a bottom. Nice explanation job on this! Thanks again!

[@rainbowwarrior217]

Michelle Galeher Thank you! I am currently working on some matching bikini bottoms :)

[@dianacruz8471]

Does she use both chains or only the first front one ?

[@olgamartinez5813]

It's really a simple way to crochet a top! Thanks a lot for the detailed tutorial! Это действительно простой способ связать топ, спасибо большое за подробное видео!

[@samanthanock9058]

Can we use acrylic yarn

[@nicoleanastasia4127]

Hi how do you maintain the bottom part? Mine doesnt look like a straight line. Instead it looks like a curve one as i go on. Where did i go wrong?

[@molliehudson5692]

4 years too late but you might have been missing the last stitch causing it to grow shorter each time.

[@ladydede88]

Thank you very simple and helpful... 😊🙌...

[@AngieCee1]

thanks for this! got one cup down, one to go lol. this will be the first successful project I've done....most of my failures have been because I didn't understand directions, and couldn't see stitches, etc...I'm gonna make your boho top after this. thanks for the video!!!!!!! 😍

[@findingdory7589]

ceo

[@a.k.a.nirvana]

im making this for my firend and i cant measure is aganist her to see if it would fit, about how many row for B cups?

[@cynthiasmith5082]

Do you have a corresponding video for the matching bikini bottom pattern?

[@terserg11]

Grgeat video and thanks for makeing it! The only part i didnt get is how to make the top"breads"?

[@brittanipluskota7876]

Like for example to make a reversible top

[@adrianac4915]

what cup size did 12 rows create?

[@mzdeez8865]

are you measuring lengthwise or width when u begin saying measure from base to nipple?

[@sophiereading1706]

Hi, I already posted about the bottoms but do you have this in a knitted pattern? Trying to make one for my sister but I cant crochet and there aren't any patterns for knitted bikini's.Thanks

[@aliannarobles4907]

question..... how do you make it triangle shape? I followed the instructions but its rounding off and buldging out

[@sophiagail8168]

What cup size is this? I'm planning to make a d size cup.

[@kimlockstedt5907]

How many chains for a 36D

[@sarahhyeahh]

I've taught myself to crochet and while this pattern is very easy and wonderful to follow, I am having the same problem over and over. How do you make it so that the bottom does not curve?? It seems like whenever I skip that first sc after ch1 & turn, it makes the bottom begin to curve upwards as I go on. Is there something I am missing? Or should I not be skipping that first sc? Thanks!

[@rhyliebest5263]

that happened to me so much and I just stuck to making halters or other designs that dont need that cup

[@hourglas39]

Hi, you dont have to skip the first chain if you dont want to, that would prevent the cup from curving. Instead of chaining 10, chain 5 and use the same instructions as in this video with the exception of not skipping the first chain, your see that your cups wont curve using this method :). Happy crocheting.

[@danahueston]

Great Tutorial!

[@tresaley8802]

Thank you for sharing 😊👍🏻👏🏻

[@rainbowwarrior217]

tresa ley Thank you for your wonderful comments :)

[@ketchupmonkeyy]

Do you know where I can buy the insert pads to go behind the top?

[@rainbowwarrior217]

Justine Moreno I know you can get inserts at lots of stores like Target/Wal-mart etc. You can buy them online as well on Amazon... I pulled some inserts out of my old bikinis that I don't wear anymore :P

[@ketchupmonkeyy]

Thank you! :)

[@tiffanytheface1]

I am a super beginner and I didn't understand why the stitch marker

[@mariemarques1232]

Lovely...Thank you

[@jeanettetorres2612]

I love the free people croachet crop top and bininy bottoms, but they´re so expensive, so I decide that is time to learn how to, I´m a bigginer so I´m gonna need all the help, thank you the cups came out Ok : )

[@rainbowwarrior217]

jeanette torres That's the exact same reason I learned! I just kept practicing the cups over and over :)

[@nothinglikethesunfnv5951]

...I also noticed that you did not mention the 'Stitch Count', per row...?..Hence, can you confirm the expected stitch increase, as the rows go up (I.e., for a standard US/UK Small, Medium, Large etc... ?

[@olgaramirez100]

how chain for size 42d

[@elaine8152]

how can you get more depth for someone with larger breast I need to protrude more from the nipplles thanks

[@MrMrsPlaza]

for your starting chain measure from the bottom crease of your breast to the nipple area and increase chains if you need to I had to chain 14 to get the desired size for me I normally wear a DDD

[@13DopeCrochets]

Definitely donating to you. Would you happen to know how many chains/rows I have to make for a sz 38D? I have small breast and Im making this for someone else😊

[@carolinedumper795]

Lovely 🥰

[@NanaNanis24]

This is beautiful! but will it hold up well with prolonged water exposure, such as swimming or going to the beach?

[@rainbowwarrior217]

+Danahe arenas That is a great question! I have seen some girls wearing theirs on the beach, I have not tested mine in the water yet but I can not imagine it being a practical suit to swim in. However, I have issues with normal bikinis so I am sure there are girls who can pull it off! I would test it in the shower before taking it to the pool or ocean :)

[@JacK-qn4zh]

sew in a linner...easy and nice!!!!

[@brittanipluskota7876]

Instead of sewing in a liner could you just double cups by slip stitching together?

[@rainbowwarrior217]

Brittani Pluskota Definitely!

[@brittanipluskota7876]

Thanks i tried it and made a reversible top and loved it thanks for your tutorial!

[@nothinglikethesunfnv5951]

Can you make a video, on how to make a Tankini top, using these Bikini cups..?

[@herfemininity4580]

I have a question if given a bra size how can you determine how big to make the cup ?

[@rainbowwarrior217]

imani cooper That's a tough question and something I'm working on figuring out now as I'm making some tops for friends.... So far I have been using the general guideline of 10 rows for A cup, 12 rows for B cup, 14 rows for C cup, and so on... However, I have found that this doesn't always work out and some people prefer more coverage than others. Hope this helps, hopefully I'll figure something thats more exact :/

[@dleclerc77]

So I have been looking for years for a crochet bikini but they are SO expensive. It never occurred to me how easy it was to make one seeing as I crochet! Thank you so much for posting this video. Will u be doing a bikini bottom tutorial any time soon?

[@rainbowwarrior217]

Danielle Leclerc I'm glad you were able to use this tutorial! Yes it is definitely in my plans to create a tutorial for matching bottoms but it may take me awhile to get it up on youtube : /

[@RIODJENIRO1]

Rainbow Warrior Will be looking forward to this new video, as I will be using your video on the top to make several for my daughter who lives near the ocean!! Thank you!

[@pixiejasper9043]

Hi For SL bikini top how many chairs I need to crochet and for the bikinies panti the size I need to crochet is34D

[@MariaLopes-rx3vy]

hey, im the ultimate begginer at crotchet, so I don't know much about it! I'm kinda of afraid that the material will become see-through when in contact with water. is it possible to pad or protect it someway? by sewing a white protection on the inner part of the bikini? will that destroy that crotchet? wonderful video and tutorial!!! and wonderful bikini! :D

[@beatlebabe1969]

You can sew in cups or fabric

[@mckaylamosley6706]

What cup size is this some women got big ones if you get where I'm going lol

[@rainbowwarrior217]

Mckayla Mosley In this tutorial I made for a C cup... however, I have used this pattern to make for my friend who has very large boobs (not even sure the size). I just crocheted more rows until they covered her completely :)

[@reginamorris1662]

how many chains would I need for a size 38c

[@flwerchild90]

regina morris measure from base to nipple (vertically) and as you make your chain you will know when to stop.

[@bexbeadman8388]

Hey question for you I have big boobs and i want to now if you can do it for them? What megurment do i need ? I just megurd 13in so how many chains do i need ? I love your video

[@elaine8152]

I need amore fuller cup that protrudes more from the nipples what should ido

[@beatlebabe1969]

I'm a 36 i (USA) and I just made more rows following the pattern until it fit correctly :)

[@gabeferreira2841]

Love the way you showed this tutorial it's so easy, love how it came out, p.s are you planning on to make a one piece cuz my granddaughter who is 10 years old asked me to make her one out of the blue lol

[@noemitorressantos]

Like it...

[@vrushalitodkari5741]

👌👌👌👌👌👌

[@deannadalton]

Thank you so much! Your instructions and this pattern is just wonderful. Being left-handed I often have a challenge converting instruction for the lefty way lol but no trouble here. I especially like your idea for the straps at top to braid and then secure those straps as this looks so nice and gives us larger boobies gals more support :-)

[@Frmlygraspit]

That cup looks way giant o.o

[@rainbowwarrior217]

bree torious Be sure to crochet less rows to make it smaller :)
