CROCHET BIKINI CUPS FOR ALL SIZES
So let me now get started and tell you what you will need in order to crochet this PERFECT BIKINI CUPS FOR ALL SIZES.
These bikini cups for a summer beach top or halter top are crocheted with single crochets only. They have a simple construction, where we crochet both cups and then we join them together and crochet the border around as one piece all the way around.
The pattern uses only basic crochet stitches - single crochets and chains.
This perfect fit CUPS are really a crocheter's dream, made with the single crochet stitches, worked in rows.
Size: woman - BIKINI CUPS XS - S - M - L SIZE
This can easily be adapted to a smaller size or bigger size just by reducing or increasing the number of chains and rows for the coat and as well as making less or more chains in the basic chain.

CROCHET BIKINI CUPS FOR ALL SIZES
PATTERN NOTES
1) Before you start take a measurement, I would recommend to determine the width of your cups and the hight. Measure the circumference under the breast and hight from the bottom of the breast to the nipple.
If you want to have your cup longer, make a longer foundation chain at the beginning. If you want to have your cup wider, make more rows.
2) This pattern is for A - B - C - D cup women size, but you can easily adapt to a smaller size or bigger size just by reducing or increasing the number of chains and rows for the top and as well as making less or more chains in the basic chain.
3) A ch1 at beg of the row DOESN'T COUNT as a stitch.
