Introduction
In this tutorial, I will show you how to crochet a bralette. This bralette is a perfect project for crochet enthusiasts and can be easily customized to fit individual sizes. With a variety of colors and stitches, you can create a unique and stylish bralette that will make you stand out. So let's get started!
Materials Needed
Before we dive into the tutorial, make sure you have the following materials ready:
- 1.90 mm and 3.0 mm crochet hooks
- Yarn in four different colors
- Stitch markers
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
Making the Chain
To begin, we will start by making the chain for the bralette. The length of the chain will depend on the size you want to achieve. For a size small, make 12 chains. However, you can make it longer for larger sizes. Once you have made the chains, chain 2 additional stitches.
Making the Double Crochets
Next, we will make double crochets in each of the stitch holes of the chain. Make one double crochet in each stitch until you reach the end of the chain. This will be the foundation row for your bralette.
Changing Colors
To add color to your bralette, you will need to change colors. After completing a row of double crochets, change the color of the yarn by making a chain and yarn over. Then, continue making double crochets from the back of the stitches. Continue this pattern until you reach the tip of your work.
Adding Additional Rows
Once you reach the tip of your work, you will make four double crochets in the same stitch hole. Start by making two double crochets, then chain two, and make two additional double crochets in the same stitch hole, separated by a chain of two. After this, continue making double crochets in each stitch until you reach the end of the row. This pattern will create a beautiful textured look.
Making a Single Crochet at the Base
To give your bralette a finished look, make a single crochet at the base part of your work. This will make the base smooth and prevent it from unraveling. Once you reach the end, cut off the excess yarn and tie it securely.
Making the Left Piece
To cover the left side of your breast, repeat the same steps used for the right side of the bralette. You will need to create another piece that matches the size of the right side. This will ensure symmetry and a balanced look.
Making the Straps
To create straps for your bralette, switch to a 3.0 mm crochet hook and double your yarn. Make a slip stitch and chain approximately 100 stitches. However, you can adjust the length based on your preference. Attach the chain to one of the bra cups, making sure to work on the front part. Make single crochets in each stitch until you reach the end. Chain three and make a single crochet, connecting it to the second bra cup. This will create a strap that wraps around the neck.
Making the Mesh Base
To create the mesh base, use a single strand of yarn and a 3.0 mm crochet hook. Create a chain, long enough to fit around your hips. Place the chain around your hips to determine the right size.
