Description
This is a PDF sewing pattern and tutorial to teach you how to create these garments. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING IN THE MAIL.
The Circe Swim Top will make you feel like a beautiful Greek Goddess capable of magic! After all, who wouldn’t be impressed when you sew up this stunning, fully reversible bikini top? Choose from thin straps or more supportive thick straps. You can choose the thinner waist ties or go with more coverage with the thicker waist ties. You can also add in removable swim cups, but this does make the top not reversible. All options have a deep v neckline and the wrap design gives a little more wiggle room with fit if you fluctuate sizes. You can also relax and let me do your adjustments for you if you need a small or full bust adjustment, as this pattern includes pieces with those adjustments already made for every size.
Pattern options for the Circe Swim Top include:
- Straps: Thick / Thin
- Waist Ties: Thick / Thin
- Optional: Removable Cups
- All Options Fully Lined- Most Fully Reversible
- Sizes: Regular, Small Bust Adjustment, Full Bust Adjustment
The Circe Swim Top Pattern is drafted for traditionl, high stretch swim knit.
