Before moving on I think we need to stand up and give ourselves a giant round of applause. You just made a bikini bottom! If you're feeling particularly proud I think we can throw in a pat on the back too.

Let's start on our bikini top! It's basically two triangles connected by strings. We'll prepare by creating the base of the first cup (where the underwire would be if this were a bra).

1. Chain the base of your triangle. I suggest at least thirty chains for someone with a small chest. The best way to know is to hold it up to you. The chain should reach from about where your arm hits your boob to the cleavage area.
2. Do some regular double crocheting for five rows.
3. Next, do steps one and two again to create the base of the second cup.
