Detailed Crochet Pattern

1. Creating the Bra Cups

Measurements:

  • For a bust size of 39 inches, chain 16 (measures about 3 inches for nipple-to-underbust distance).
  • Adjust the starting chain length per bust size:
    • Bust Size 32 inches: Chain 12.
    • Bust Size 35 inches: Chain 14.
    • Bust Size 39 inches: Chain 16.

Step-by-Step Bra Cup Construction:

Foundation Chain:

  1. Make a slip knot and chain the required starting chains for your size.

Round 0 (Base Round):

  1. Skip the first two chains from the hook; work 1 DC into the 3rd chain. Mark the gap between the CH 2 and the first DC with a stitch marker. This will help identify the center point later.
  2. Continue to work 1 DC into each chain across the row. The total number of double crochets will be your starting chain minus 2.
  3. Finish the row and prepare for the next round.

Round 1:

  1. Chain 3 (counts as a DC), turn your work.
  2. Skip the first stitch and begin working 1 DC in each stitch across until you reach the marked center gap.Crochet Beaded Corset Top Tutorial (7)
  3. At the marked center (created at the CH 2 gap from Round 0), remove the marker and work 5 DC into the gap.
    • Place the stitch marker on the third DC within this group for the new center.
  4. Continue working 1 DC into each stitch along the other side of the foundation chain.

Subsequent Rounds:

  1. Repeat Round 1, adding 2 DC, CH 1, 2 DC into the center marked stitch for each round to create increases.
  2. Stop working increases when you are three rounds away from your desired total cup height. For a size 39-inch bust, repeat for Rounds 2-5.Crochet Beaded Corset Top Tutorial (6)
  3. For the last three rounds:
    • Round 6: At the center, work 3 DC instead of the previous increase method.
    • Round 7: Work 1 DC in every stitch without increases.
    • Round 8 (Final Round): Chain 1, turn, and work 1 SC in every stitch to clean up the edges.

2. Creating the Cup Wings

  1. With the yarn still attached to the cup, CH 1 and SC into the body of the last DC where Round 8 ended (not directly into the stitch).
  2. Along the curve, work single crochets evenly:
    • For each DC, make 2 SC: one in the stitch and one in the gap of each DC.Crochet Beaded Corset Top Tutorial (5)
    • For chain spaces, work 2 SC directly into the chain gap.
  3. When you finish working the curve, SL ST into the first stitch of the straight edge.

Building the Back-Wing Rows:

  1. Start with a CH 3 (counts as a DC) and work 1 DC into every stitch.
  2. Continue working rows of DCs without increasing or decreasing until the wing measures approximately 5.25 inches (or desired length). For this tutorial, 13 rows of DC were made.
  3. Create strap holes in the final row as follows:
    • CH 3 and turn. Work 2 DC, then CH 2 and skip 2 stitches.
    • Continue: 2 DC, CH 2, skip 2 stitches. Repeat this pattern across the final row to create spaces for the lace-up strap.
  4. Chain 1 and turn. Work 1 SC into every DC and 2 SC into every CH-2 space to clean up the strap hole row.Crochet Beaded Corset Top Tutorial (4)

3. Joining the Cups

  1. Create a slip knot and attach your yarn to one cup at the single crochet stitch closest to the curve.
  2. Chain 3 and SL ST into the corresponding stitch on the second cup. This creates the first bridge connecting the cups.
  3. Work three rows of shells:
    • Each shell consists of 2 DC, CH 1, 2 DC worked into the chain-1 space of the previous row.
    • SL ST three stitches downward on one cup, work the shell, then SL ST onto the opposite cup.
    • Repeat until both cups are securely joined. Add an additional shell row if you prefer more coverage.

4. Braided Strap

  1. Using 6 strands of yarn, create a slip knot and switch to a 4.5 mm hook.
  2. Chain 3. Work two incomplete DCs into the first chain (both leaving two loops on the hook), then yarn over and pull through all loops. Chain 1 to close the stitch.
  3. Turn the work. In the space between the two large V-stitches of the previous row, work two incomplete DCs, pull through all loops, and chain 1.
  4. Repeat this pattern, turning the work after every chain 1. Continue until the braid has 58 V-stitches or desired length.Crochet Beaded Corset Top Tutorial (3)

5. Assembly and Sizing

  1. Attach the braided strap to the cups, marking points for the front, back, and center. Sew securely using the 6-strand leftover yarn.
  2. Ensure straps sit flat and without twists before finalizing attachment for a polished look.
  3. For the lace-up back, create a chain strap or use the braided strap method as the lacing. Thread it through the strap holes created in the back wings.

Conclusion

This elegant Valentine bralette is not only beautifully designed but also highly customizable. By following the measurements and pattern, you can adapt it to suit your style or client preferences. Feel free to add beads or other embellishments to the straps for extra detailing. This bra is perfect when paired with a matching skirt or can be worn standalone for a chic look.
