Gauge: 1 in = 5 sts

According to my gauge and measurements, I should have cast on 125 sts but I knew that cotton stretches some and knocked the st count down to 120 sts

Size reference: I’m 5’4”(162.5 cm), ~116 lbs, US 30DD bust

Measurements:
A: 10 in
B: 25 in
C: 33 in
D: 36 sts

Had 7 total body repeats

For the top portion I followed the directions for the custom version which covers the side boob area a bit more grin

Decrease until 6 in= 24 sts
Then made 12 straight rows of no decreases before seaming for tube

For the Tie I wanted something a little sturdier than chain sts so I made a crochet i-cord that measured 36 in. After blocking I strung the cord through the front and slid/poked the ties through the backside and then put a knot on the ends

knittleandpearl and RCosDesign tips and notes were super helpful!
