For this pattern you’ll need:
- Yarn of your choice and recommended hook size for yarn. I recommend using cotton or cotton blend yarn for clothing items as I find it's easier to take care of and doesn't snag or pull.
- Stitch markers (recommended)
- Measuring tape
- Tapestry needle
-approx 200g of Drops Muskat 100% cotton yarn in Powder Pink.
Skills and abbreviations:
- chain - ch
- slip stitch - sl st
- single crochet - sc
- double crochet - dc
Pattern:
Row 1: ch13, sc in second stitch from hook and then sc across so you have 12 stitches. ch1 and turn your work. Visual pattern is included below.
Row 2: sc across 12 stitches. sc3 in the space between the two rows. Put a marker in the middle stitch. 12sc back down your starting ch. ch1 and turn your work.
Row 3: sc across. in the marked stitch sc3. mark the middle sc again. continue sc to the end of the row. ch1 and turn your work.
Repeat Row 3 until desired fit. I ended up with 13 rows either side from the middle. Fasten off your first cup.
Make a second cup. Don’t fasten off.
Sc in every stitch across your cup. sc into the first corner stitch of your first cup. sc across the second cup. Don’t fasten off. Photo reference below.

Fasten off.
Attach your yarn to the bottom outer corner of your other cup. Repeat Row 1 to 17. Don’t fasten off.
For the bottom:
Row 1: sc across the bottom of your side panel, bottom of both cups and across the bottom of your other side panel.
You’ll need to count how many stitches you have across the bottom. This is X.
109 (121, 133, 145, 157) minus X will equal the number of you need to chain.
Check your top fits around you. It’s okay if you have to stretch it a little. This is where you can size up/down to get your perfect fit.
Row 2: sl st into the outer corner your other side panel. ch3, dc into the next stitch. dc109 (121, 133, 145, 157). sl st into your chain.
Row 3: ch3, turn your work, dc around.
Repeat Row 3 one more row or until your desired length.
For the lace:
You’ll now be working in the round instead of turning your work. A visual pattern is also included below for reference.
Row 1: ch4, sk 3, sc. Repeat around.
Row 2: dc6 into your previous ch4 loop. sc1 into your next previous ch4 loop. ch4, sc into your next previous ch4 loop. Repeat around.
Row 3: dc1, ch1 x5. dc1. sc into ch4 loop below. Repeat around.
Row 4: *dc3 into your below ch1. ch4, sl st into first chain. Repeat 5 times. sl st into your previous sc.* Repeat *to* around.

For the straps:
Attach your yarn to the top middle of one of your cups. Chain how long you need your strap to be. I did 65. sc into the back band of your top where you want your strap to end.
Fasten off.
Repeat on the other side.
Optional: sew 4 stitches of the cups together, you can sew a few less or more... or leave it open if you prefer it that way!
