Design Details and Benefits
- Colour bands repeat evenly from strap to hem - keeps the stripe pattern consistent rather than random
- Scalloped trim echoes the open stitch above it - ties the finished edge to the texture of the rest of the piece
The hand-crochet construction is what gives this bikini its texture - a printed stripe on smooth fabric would look flat by comparison, while the crochet stitch itself creates the pattern's texture, not just its colour. Worth knowing before you order: the open stitch means this runs sheer in places, so it photographs best with a liner or a bikini bottom you're comfortable showing through slightly.
