Yep. My bikini is finally finished (just have to tidy up those stray strings)! Woohoo! I can start on a new project soon!
Mind you this bikini is NOT feasible in water. Why? Coz its all cotton. Cotton absorbs alot of water. Then your swimsuit will just fall off you. I wanted to find elastic yarns. But apparently, they only sell it in USA and I have to import it in if I really wanted to go into this seriously. But for now, it's all pure fun.
For this bikini, I used 2 balls (about $5 each?) of yarn and one $2 t-shirt, which I substitute it for lycra. Lycra is expensive, plus if I wanted to buy some cheap swimsuit to cut up, they only come in blue and black. Boo hoo.
Pattern? Courtesy of Ashley Paige's Sexy Little Knits book that I borrowed from the library. I had to borrow it, return, borrow, return, wash rinse repeat for few months. I should just buy it right?
For now, I'm so proud of myself (except for that obvious horrible stitches to join the lining and the crochet bikini) *pats self*
