Summer is all about the beach in Australia, beach culture includes cool summer fashions like cool summer tops,shorts,mini skirts, Havaiana thongs,spray on tans and of course the all important "bikini'. Swimwear is a fashion statement in its self and here in Australia swimwear designers are amongst the best in world and why wouldn't they be,just take a look at our beautiful coastline .
Looking great on and around the beach is imperative,this is why I designed this funky retro crochet bikini.
"Vintage" is back, and what better way to show off your body than the iconic hip and groovy crochet
bikini.
This pattern took me one year to perfect its fit and
contours.Its an easy to follow pattern which uses only one stitch throughout,so if you can crochet visit here http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25164196

Cheers and thanks for looking....Have a great summer!!!!

the crochet bikini is back!!!!

Its amazing how fashion turns around and comes right back around again.This time its the retro,cool and hip crochet bikini,seems like all the celebs are wearing some sort of crocheted swimsuit. Even our very own Aussie icon Elle McPherson, sports illustrated swimsuit model extraordinaire was spotted wearing one last
 summer.

I have have been torturing myself for over a year trying to come up with the best fitting crochet bikini pattern, and at last i have done it. It took many many many trials and errors to finally  come up with a beautiful fitting crochet bikini ( pictured below ), even my cousin (a budding young fashion designer) insisted i make her one (huge compliment)

My pattern is so easy to follow and uses only (1) stitch throughout, I'm thrilled with the results. So if you, or someone you know can crochet then check this out,

Cheers for now.....

IF THE PATTERN FITS....WEAR IT

creating and designing my crochet bikini pattern was not an easy road. Many patterns on the web were really really horrible, I tried a few out and they just weren't up to scratch, so i decided to create my own pattern. It took me nearly one year of trial and error but in the end i got there and here is the end result, even my niece who is a fashion designer wanted me to make her one (now that's a huge compliment) you can find this pattern at my etsy store http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25164196
