Knit Bikini Top — Free Knitting Pattern and Video Tutorial

Learn to knit a bikini in this video how-to from Threadbanger

Bikini patterns get crafty with this free swimwear knitting project. To make the triangle top bikini, you'll need an intermediate level of knitting skills and about 2 hours. Gwen of Knit Knit explains how to measure the DIY swimsuit to your size with simple math and shows each knitting stitch needed to make the swimsuit pattern. If you are a little rusty on your stockinette stitch, the video shows a slow-motion version, in which you knit one row and purl one row. The bathing suit pattern recommends size 10 knitting needles, a size 9 crochet hook, a worsted weight cotton yarn, a tapestry needle, a cable needle, a stitch marker, measuring tape and scissors.
Knit a bikini top with the simple instructions from Gwen at Knit Knit, for Threadbanger.
