Skill Level

Intermediate: Basic stitches such as single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc), chain stitch (ch), plus increases and decreases; stitch counting and shaping.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Setup Base Ring

Start with a 3 cm acrylic ring or make a small circle from chained loops approx same size.
Tie your chosen yarn (e.g., light yellow) with a small knot around the ring for a firm hold.

2. Round 1: Single Crochet Foundation

Insert hook into ring, pull yarn through, and make 24 single crochet (sc) stitches evenly spaced around the ring.
Join with slip stitch to first sc.
Make sure ring is fully covered and evenly spaced.

3. Round 2: Begin Shaping with Double Crochet Increases

Chain 3 (counts as first double crochet).
In the same stitch, work 2 double crochet (dc) to make an increase.
Work 6 more dc stitches, one dc in each stitch.
At the last stitch, work 2 dc stitches together (increase) again.
Total: increase at beginning and end, 6 dc stitches in-between.

4. Round 3 to Round 6: Continue Increasing Shape

Turn work, chain 3 (counts as dc).
Work dc stitches across each stitch until reaching the last stitch.
At start and end of each row, work 2 dc increases (2 dc in the same stitch).
Repeat for a total of 4 increase rounds.
This shapes the cup with gradual increases on edges.

5. Round 7 to Round 10: Straight Rows Without Increases

Chain 3 and turn work.
Work single dc stitch over each dc from previous row with no increases.
Continue for 4 rounds to build depth and maintain shape.

6. Round 11 to End: Begin Decreasing for Cup Finish

Chain 3 and turn work.
Work dc decreases at start and end:
- Yarn over, insert hook through next two stitches, yarn over and pull through (2 loops on hook).
- Yarn over and pull through 2 loops to complete decrease.
Work dc stitches in between stitches as normal.
Continue decreasing rows by 1 stitch per side until 2 dc stitches remain.
End with a final row of 3 chains then turn.

7. Create Back Tie Cords

At one edge of cup base, chain 27 small loops—chain 3, turn, and slip stitch loops to form rings.
Secure by tying knots near last loop to prevent unraveling.
Repeat on the other side for double tie cords.

8. Finishing Color Change (Optional)

Switch to contrasting color yarn (e.g., turquoise blue).
Work around edges with decorative blocks:
- Alternate blocks of three dc stitches together, chain 1, skipping alternate rows for shell-like texture.
End with slip stitch closure and weave in ends neatly.

9. Neck Tie Cord

Chain 120 chains for size S (increase by 20 chains per larger size) to make neck tie.
Finish by fastening ends securely for adjustable tie neck.
You can remove neck tie to wear as strapless.

Tutor’s Suggestions

Always measure width exactly for your yarn type; size 6 twine yields a base width of approx 5.5 cm for first row.
Adjust increase/decrease rows for personal fit and cup size.
Use smooth yarn for comfortable wear and limited stretching.
Add lining if needed for extra coverage; sold separately or sewn on by hand.
Practice decrease stitch before starting to ensure smooth shaping.

Uses

Stylish summer bra top or crop top for casual wear or layering.
Great handmade gift or boutique sale item, lightweight and breathable.
Versatile with removable neck ties and adjustable back cord.

Final Tip

Tip: Keep track of your stitch count while increasing and decreasing to maintain symmetry and perfect cup shape. Use stitch markers if needed for marking start/end of decreases.

Conclusion

This delicate but sturdy twine bra top combines functional shaping with elegant crochet details for an attractive summer garment. Its simple stitch pattern and clear increase/decrease strategy make it an excellent intermediate project.
