Slip-Stitch Bra
I wanted to make a novelty bra that could be fun and still fairly functional. A slipstitch “underwire” with a single-crochet edge gives support at the bottom of the cups, while a slip-stitch column between the cups creates a strong join and slightly gathers the fabric around it. The straps—a halter strap, two shoulder straps, and one strap criss-crossed across the back—I think of a halter top as having two straps tied behind the neck. I don’t “see” the halter, then two straps, then one. Are there lots of straps or are these alternatives?are worked as crochet chains with two yarns held together. The yarn is very soft and yummy against the skin.
This project is shown on pages 50-51 of Interweave Knits, Spring 2007. The pattern is NOT in the magazine, however. Readers are instructed to find instructions on the website www.interweaveknits.com.
