After receiving an overwhelming number of requests from the crochet community, I set my mind to creating the crochet version of my Candy Cane and Sweet Treats panty patterns!

This pattern calls for yarns to be held double. Unwind both skeins of HiKoo CoBaSi yarn into 2 separate balls, and then re-wind the 2 balls of yarn into one ball of yarn held double. Hold both strands of yarn together as if they were 1 strand of yarn and crochet the entire project with the yarns held double.

Overview of the pattern: The Sweet Treats are crocheted flat, and then seamed to the waist ribbing, with the other color edging finished off in the round. The pattern begins with crocheting the front of the panty and then decreasing stitches down to the gusset. Once the front is complete, you will continue onto the back, working the piece as one. After finishing the back, you will tie off your loop and begin the crochet ribbing for the waist. The waist ribbing is crocheted separately from the front and back and is made specific to your body. The last step of this pattern will be making the single crochet edging in the other color.

The last 3 photos are of my Candy Cane Treats knitting pattern, which inspired the thong pattern to be made, and later for the crochet version of both patterns to be created.
