This two tone bikini set can
be made in bright colors and is perfect for sitting by the beach on any sunny
day. The two tones make it unique and you can use any colors for combinations. It
is recommended when making bikini to use stretchy acrylic yarn for a better fit
especially if you intend to get into the water. The set it easy to make and uses
only one stitch.

notes are highlighted with blue italics
Ø When
changing colors for the bikini bottom, do not carry the yarn through, rather
drop it at the back of your work and pick it up when working the next row.
Ø When
working though changed color, insert yarn through the loose yarn first and then
through the stitch, then pull through two loops. This will make your work look
neat.
