Although there is less than a week till summer officially starts, here's been scorching hot for a while. And I cannot stop thinking of blue seas, white sand and of course... bikinis!
I have always had a crush on crochet bikinis. I find them irresistible though knowing well they are immensely impractical. I don't know if you have ever worn one but they are only good for showing off. Once, when I was young and had the pre-mama body I crocheted a pair. Seeing how expensive they were at the shops, I decided to make one myself but had no idea how to make it, so I asked a neighbour to help me with my idea. It is quite simple, but I am proud because it was the first bikini I had ever done and it turned out great. I still have it and tried to find it and show it to you in this post, but it seems it is misplaced somewhere. I am determined to find it for a future post - because this is not going to be the last post on swimwear, so sit tight for the next episode.
Are you a crochet bikini person?
Here I have made a selection of seven bikinis I liked and when you click on the links there will be more patterns included so hopefully you find something you like.
Enjoy clicking!

They certainly are :)
Thank you for dropping by Catherine!
I love the vintage vibe but can't help but wonder what happens when they get wet? I don't see any lining.

Creative idea:) I like number7.
Test your yarn your using. If it stretches when wet....don't use.....
In Brazil we use to crochet in a yarn named VERANO. Spectacular.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this beach cover ups – so energetic! I wish I had some worthwhile time to go on so I could wear something like this!
Ha! I wish I had the body to go with those......
It was wondering if I could use this write-up on my other website, I will link it back to your website though. Great Thanks. Classic Crochet Bikini
Please note these bikinis are not my work.
