Notes

Going to use the extra skein left over from the drop stitch kimono, it’s even the same color as the original pattern. Use 4mm needles to have a denser fabric and make in size medium cause size runs v small. Gauge swatch indicates 19 stc x 25 rows for 10 cm square so make sure to adapt the band for example, CO 5 stc instead of 6.

Finished the band and the left side, picked up 24 stcs instead of 33. Then added a repeat at the end of the left front section where I replaced the first ssk with a k2 in order to end up with 13 stitches. This allowed me to follow the transition to tie section until the end where i added one WS row (k1 sl1 k2tog k1) to end up with 4 stcs.

Finished this at 3 in the morning and I’m so happy with the way it looks! The cups are a tad small but still somewhat the end product I wanted. This is going to be great to wear under semi-transparent tops.
