This listing is for a complete pattern and tutorial for the Retro-style swimsuit/yoga/dance top pictured above. This listing is NOT for the actual top, but the pattern and tutorial to make it.
This pattern will make a top to fit size Small and Medium.
Measurements for Small Bra Top:
Under Bust = min 26"/max 32"
Measurements for Medium Bra Top:
Under Bust = min 30"/max 35"
Max cup size = C
Materials Needed:
1/2 yard spandex fabric with four-way stretch
12" length of 1/4" wide elastic
Polyester thread
Ballpoint needle
A serger machine and standard machine are preferred to complete this project. I never want to discourage anyone from trying out a project, but spandex fabric is not an easy material to work with so some decent comfort with sewing techniques and confidence with a serger and sewing machine will go a long way to make this an enjoyable project. I did create this pattern to be something the home sewer can tackle. The tutorial includes many pictures to help you along the way.
