Oceana Bikini

This bikini top puts a twist on the traditional string bikini, making it perfect for relaxing by the pool or chilling at the beach. Like a traditional string bikini this top has cups that move, meaning you can get the fit and coverage you desire. A combination of shell stitches and chaining creates the scalloped edging. This pattern is written for cup sizes: Small, Medium and Large with a totally customisable back tie. However information is given on how to adjust the cups sizes for the perfect fit.
