Last year Eva wanted me to make her a halter like this, but I wasn't much into it. But this year, seeing that it's going to be quite a hit I decided to give it a try. Since I didn't have a pattern, but had tons of pictures she sent as inspiration, I whipped this. It was an interesting challenge I accepted and believe it or not it took me about 2 hours to make it. No frogging and unraveling since I counted 3 times and crocheted 1 :)
We are both pleased how it turned out.
Now, in retrospect, as I am going to make another one, I want to add a more elaborate edge below the bust and perhaps make the straps at the mid back a bit narrower.
Our next plan includes making a crochet bikini for the summer, without a pattern too, so I hope it turns out as good as this one.
Nice top.
ReplyDeleteThank you Myrica#
DeleteOh, what a cute top and with no pattern; you are so very clever! I Am looking forward to seeing the bikini!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kim. We have like 20 days until our holiday so hopefully it'll be on time.
Deletecute top, it will be interesting to see a bikini set made without a pattern as lingerie can be quite tricky
ReplyDeleteOh, but I have made two for myself in the past, so I know it would be fine.
DeleteBeautiful top on a very pretty girl! She looks amazing in it. Looking forward to see the bikini too. :-)
