Stitch markers - optional
Scissors

Notes: Please note that I am left handed when viewing the photos!
Turning chains do not count as a stitch.
The top is made by creating the front panel first, followed by the ruffled sides/shoulders and then the back tabs.
A length of approx. 200 chains is done to tie in a corset fashion in the back.
Optional – 2 separate lengths of chains can be attached to the top insides of the front panel, and weaved through to meet and tie in the middle. This creates a gathered edging especially for smaller busts.
