BARBIE DOLL BIKINI

I made an adult bikini some time back, and a friend asked if I’d make a two piece set for a doll. ;)

Of course, if you know me, I’m always willing to try anything crochet.. and as you are here, following me, I guess you too are game to try anything, huh!

Come along then.. let’s get this bikini done.

Materials used : Today I’ve used a combination of our lovely Indian Oswal yarn with a 2 mm crochet hook ; ready-made ear ring hooks (one pair minimum) ; beads ; pearls ; shells ; connector rings ; glue to seal ends.

For Indians : You could use Anchor , Red rose metallic ; or unbranded knitting cotton as well

General yarn info : The yarn used today is not specific to this pattern.

You can use any yarn with a suitable hook to make this project to any size.

International yarns : Among the international yarns I have used in this thickness, I’d suggest Aunt Lydia Cotton 10, Aunt Lydia Bamboo-Viscose 10, DMC Petra, Sullivans knitting cotton (Australia), Milford Soft, Hilaza Rustica Eclat , Alize cotton yarn and Alize bamboo yarn.

Skill level : Intermediate.

Stitches used :

Starting slip knot : Here’s how you start with a slip knot. https://youtu.be/lJcqsVcs8cw

Starting slip knot 1 or the Sloppy Slip knot : This is a neat new way to start your work without a slip knot. https://youtu.be/YfC7KmGpifs

Pattern Instructions : (Using U.S terminology)

As I mentioned before, I had this lovely pink yarn (in acrylic) that I thought, color-wise, would look great – and of course material wise, I knew my recipient (Barbie) would not complain about ;) .. but after having finished it, I thought it would look a little more delicate in cotton. I didn’t have time to repeat or redo this – but I’m happy with the experiment.
