Materials Needed:

• Yarn (2 skeins though 1 is often enough for the top, another for matching shorts)
• Crochet hook (size not specified)
• Tape measure
• Stitch marker

Bra Cup (Make 2):

Save

Start:

• Create a slip knot.

Foundation Chain:

• Chain 13 (or according to size adjustments provided in the video).

Row 1:

• Single crochet in the second chain from the hook and in each across until the last chain. In the last chain, place 3 single crochets. Mark the middle stitch of these 3 with a stitch marker.

Row 1 Cont'd:

• Continue to single crochet down the opposite side of the chain, covering the tail with your stitches.

Ensuing Rows:

• Chain 1 and turn your work. Begin single crocheting in each stitch until you reach the marked stitch. Insert 3 single crochets in the marked stitch (replace marker in the middle stitch) and continue along the other side. Repeat this process for a total of 8 rows for a small size, adjusting as necessary for other sizes.

Detailed Edging:

Setup:

• Chain 4, turn your work, double crochet in the third stitch from the chain.

Pattern:

• Chain 1, skip a stitch, double crochet in the next. Repeat along the edge up to the stitch marker. At the marker, replace it with a chain-1 and two double crochets in the same space. Continue the pattern symmetrically on the other side.

Straps and Finalizing Cups:

Picot Row:

• Single crochet to the edge, leaving a picot (chain 3 and slip stitch in the first of these chains) after every third stitch.

Strap:

• Chain 95 (or adjust length as preferred), then slip stitch or single crochet back down the chain towards the cup. Repeat the process for the other strap after attaching and finishing the second bra cup.

Joining and Body:

Save

Measure & Calculate:

• Measure the widest part of the bra cup and your underbust. Subtract twice the cup's width from your underbust measurement to calculate the chain length needed to join the cups.

Joining:

• After crocheting the chain, attach it to the second cup by single crocheting across its base.

Body Work:

• Begin working in rows, increasing as desired to create a flare for the babydoll's body. The pattern includes alternating rows of single and double crochets, and creating fans and chain spaces for decorative edges.

Save

Completing Edges:

• Finalize with a decorative edge using picot stitches and shell patterns as demonstrated in the pattern instructions.

Finishing Touches:

• Weave in any loose ends.
• Create a tie strap by chaining 200 (or to your preferred length) to thread through the top edge of the bodice for an adjustable fit.
