A swimsuit should be both beautiful and functional. In addition, he should emphasize the dignity of the figure and hide its flaws as much as possible. To make your swimsuit meet all these requirements, tie it yourself.
Necessary
- - 150 g of cotton-stretch yarn;
- - knitting needles number 2-2, 5;
- - hook number 2, 5-3;
- - 3 m hat elastic.
Instructions
Step 1
Tie a swatch to determine the tightness of the swimsuit. It is desirable that a 10 x 10 cm sample has 25 stitches per 40 rows. If it turns out to be a little larger, then you should take the smaller knitting needles and, conversely, if smaller, then use the larger knitting needles. To prevent the swimsuit from stretching during wear, the knitting should be quite tight.
Step 2
For the left bodice cup, cast on 23 loops and knit with the front stitch. Having knitted thirty rows from the beginning of work, cast on 20 loops along the left edge, knit 33 rows all loops. To make the bodice more effective, use yarn in contrasting colors and knit the fabric in stripes.
Step 3
Crochet on closed loops one row with a "crustacean step", and along the other two edges of the cup - one row, alternating one double crochet and two air loops. Tie the right cup in a mirror image of the left one.
Step 4
Collect the bodice details. For the strings, cut two 1 meter and 70 centimeters long pieces of hat elastic. Crochet the elastic with half-columns and thread the long elastic along the bottom of the cups, and the short one along the sides. Secure the elastic at the corners. Decorate the ends of the strings with beads.
Step 5
In order to knit swimming trunks, cast on the needles 87 loops and knit with the front stitch. Having knitted 8 rows from the beginning of work, close on both sides once 27 loops. Then on both sides in every second row, knit the third and fourth stitches together 12 times. On the remaining nine stitches, knit 32 rows straight. Then add one stitch on both sides in every second row 45 times. Next, knit 12 more rows without adding and close all loops. Sew the side seams of the product.
Step 6
Crochet the top of the swimming trunks, while knitting alternately one double crochet and one air loop. Cut the elastic into two 2-inch pieces for the strings. Tie the elastic with half-columns and thread it over the back and front of the swimming trunks. Decorate the ends of the strings with large beads.
