KARA Elastic Top pattern
The Kara Elastic Top is a bandeau top which has elastics around the top and bottom borders of it (for the upper-bust and under-bust). Therefore it has no straps. It’s perfect to wear at the beach and during the summer months.
I have written this pattern including pictures guiding you through every step, making it easier for beginners also.

Material:
-Crochet Hooks: 4mm (for the main part) & 2.5mm (to wrap the elastic)
-Yarn: DK (8 ply – light worsted)
-Round Elastic Cord (for top and bottom part)
Note: I used two colors, but you can use the same yarn for the whole project.

Sizes: customisable to your body size, you will be guided on how to make your own personal measurements.

Gauge:
20 hdc sts x 15 rows = 4’’ or 10cm
