THE BEWBIFUL BRALETTE
Dare to bare it all in the Bewbiful Bralette!!!!
Yup. The name says it all. This bralette is not for the timid!! If you’ve been looking for an extremely sexy, cleavage baring, knit bralette with a lighter than air feel and silky fabric, I got you (un)covered, Babe! The Bewbiful Bralette cups are made-to-your-measurements and you’re able to choose how revealing you’d like the overall bralette to be by how you seam the cups. The halter neck and tie closure shows off your beautiful back, and if you use the recommended Truboo yarn, your bralette will be silky, slinky, and oh, so sexy. Whether you pair it with your favorite cardigan and boots this autumn or bare it all on your next beach vacation or date night, the Bewbiful Bralette is sure to drop jaws and steal hearts.
CONSTRUCTION
The Bewbiful Bralette is a knit bralette halter with a simple tie back. Elastic may be added to the band and straps to help support the breasts. Crochet edging and mattress stitch seaming create the structure and polished finish.
A FEW NOTES ON GAUGE AND SIZING
Every knitter has a different tension. It’s more important that you meet gauge than stress over the recommended size needles or the recommended yarn. Always gauge swatch!!!
Gauge (blocked): 27 sts x 33 rows worked flat in stockinette in 4” x 4” .
This is a made-to-your-measurements pattern. You will need to take some measurements and maybe do a little (basic) math to determine size and cast -ons.
A Bralette Sizing Guide and sizing tutorial videos are provided in the pattern to help you get the best fit possible for your cups and band. Keep in mind that the cups in this pattern are intended to provide minimal to moderate coverage. If you are looking for full coverage cups, you may not get the fit you desire with this pattern.
