This is a great pattern! As a plus sized gal with a large back (48C bra) I chained 16+1 for the cups and did 22 rows of sc to cover the entire side boob.
Hey guys! I love using this cup pattern, but if you wanna avoid the gaps near the bottom, single crochet on the BACK BUMP for your first chain instead of the front loops :) That's the only tweak I make, and it avoids the gaps
@@ARTIMETROS "first chain" was referring to your first foundation chain :) so if you started with 2 chains, crochet into the back bumps of that entire foundation chain
If the sizes aren't working for you, I recommend measuring from the base of your boob to the middle of the nipple and chain until it reaches that length. I struggled with this for a while and this worked great!
As Kelsie recommended, using colored markers is helpful. I used a colored marker in my first stitch at the base, another marker in my last stitch of the row on the other side of the base and another marker in the middle stitch of the three at the arch made the base straight and the arch lined up. So I have three markers in my cup at all times. I also counted from one end of the base all the way around to the other side to make sure I was increasing two stitches each time I went around. Great suggestion because it took me a few tries!
I have watched 1 tutorial for crocheting and so now I’m watching and following you fully saying in my head “poke, twirl, pull, twirl, pull pull” to remember how to keep doing the single stitch
I had always struggled with this, hence why only now, 4-5 years into crocheting did I finally decide to make a crop top for mom's spouse!! This tutorial was so well done and easy to understand!!
I just wanted to say thank you tons for this tutorial! I've been really struggling with certain parts of this even rewatching videos what feels like a thousand times but finally saw your video! what a life saver! thanks a ton!
This was a bit confusing for me. I did it wrong a couple times and had to start over and destroy my work. I just think being a little more specific or giving more details of how you did it would have helped! But after many tries I got it. This was very helpful overall :) Thank you!
By far the best tutorial I've found on the bralette cup. Easy to follow and the end result is perfect. Only thing I wish was included was total stitch count for rows but after a few I cought on lol
Oooooo I like this! I crocheted a really long chain, only worked the last 14, ( for two cups ) then worked around the rest to make a shirt- thing. Thanks for the inspiration!!
this has been the most helpful tutorial, i would get confused at the beginning and it always came out an oval shape instead of triangle. hopefully it doesn’t happy again 😔
I've must have watched dozens of videos over the last few weeks and one of the shortest ohis thirdest ones was this 1 and also 1 of the easiest to follow thank you so much
just remember that you can always adjust the pattern to what fits you. I'm a DDD but I still did a 14 chain and 14? rows. my band size is only 30 so that was still what fit me even though she used it for a B cup. adjust for what works for you :)
This is actually so helpful. I watched another video the first time I tried and it was OK, but it wasn’t like I wanted. It was more round and the instructions were difficult to follow, but this is so easy and helpful. Thank you.❤
i don’t know what it is but every time i follow a tutorial it never turns out good and you made it so much easier. I still can’t do it kind but you like simplified the stitches so we’ll keep it the good work!!
I’m a rather seasoned crocheter, and even I had a bit of a confusing time trying to follow from the starting rows. I think it would really help if you say how many sc stitches you have per row. It just helps with overall continuity, especially if this is a tutorial. The sped up time laps are also not beginner friendly. This is a pretty good tutorial overall, but only if you’ve been crocheting previously.
Yeah it’s not a tutorial for beginners. If it were I would have taught about yarn and hooks and in depth descriptions of how to do the chains and stitches and increases but is implied that you should already know all these things.
Ive attempted so many of tgese witg different yarn /cottons different hooks this is the first one that looks right and not like a sail flapping around....or like a madonna cone or a collapsed sock lol....thankyou so much ♡
When I started mine would curve because I was accidentally skipping stitches at the bottom of my cup. You could use stitch markers at the ends or count to make sure that’s not the problem! Hope that helped :)
Okey, this comment has nothing to do with this video but the first song, it’s in an add that we have in romania, so I stared to laugh for no reason😂 Love the tut tho❤
I have been watching and subscribed to your videos and this one I was having the bra cup curling. That was when I realized I had to count to make sure there is the same amount of sc on the back of the chain also!
I was wondering how the sizing works in xs,s,m,l and more because im making some tops so i would just like some clarification on that please, thank you!
Hi there! Could you possibly provide the measurements of everything? I know you say how many chains & rows but I'm using a different yarn so I'm wondering if measurements are possible??? Thanks!
okay thank you so much for the cup tutorial! i’ve been looking for something to help me with this and this made it incredibly easy and clear so thank you so much, i am wondering if anyone can recommend a band pattern for an actual top?
Is there any way I can make a cup using the lemonpeel stitch? And are there tricks on how to figure out the placement of the cups? I'd like to write patterns but this part scares me 😅.
Great video, thank you for the clear explanation. How do you keep this and other crochet clothing look nice after washing it? Do you wash them by hand, or together with other clothing in a laundry machine?
Hi there! Thanks for these tutorials, they are super helpful! Just finished 1 cup after many redo's as my first project and after that I would like to make the Lily top. As I was starting to watch the lily top tutorial I've come across a problem. The description in this video says chain 17 for a large and SC 16 rows. However, for a Lily top you're supposed to chain 16, and do 14 SC'S and one DC (and finish with 1 row SC). Is it a problem I started my cup as a 17 chain? Also, could I go a little bigger without adjusting the 17 chain? Because I feel like the cup would otherwise be a little too small for me, and if so, would you recommend going for even numbers on the single crochet or is it okay to go in odd numbers? Sorry for the many questions. I'm really new to this and I've spent 8h to complete the first cup. 😂
Hi, thank you so much for the helpful video. My question for is once we do the second row of SC which loops are we going in? There aren’t technically any V’s to create the single crochets…So can you please explain how you’re creating that second row of SC on the opposite side? Thank you so much!!
When you do the first row of the single crochets only go into one side of the V, so that when you go around and come down the other side you can crochet into the other half of the V
I use this way of making a cup in all of my original tank tops i make , if i wanted to start making patterns for my tops i make am i allowed to use this version of cup making? (‘:
Hi! your tutorial is honestly the one I've been able to best follow, I just have a question! For the second row, where we crochet on the bottom of the starting chain, do we sc into the chain we skipped from the first row, when we sc'd into the 2nd chain from the hook, or stop at the stitch before that one chain? sorry if that didn't make any sense 😅 that's just the one thing I'm unsure with!
idk if this helps but I did not make any chains when starting a new row and inserted my hook right into the first stitch where the yarn is coming out from. I usually make a chain and then insert the hook but I just followed what it looked like she was doing in the tutorial and it worked out
Do you use this pattern for your peekaboo(b) bras aswell? Cuz I really wanted to make one myself, but i cant find any instructions, so i wanted to do my own design.
If you are a DDD could you just measure the yarn up to yourself from “Point A” to “Point B” to create the correct size? Would that be from the bottom to the center or ? Thank you for your help!
It depends on your band size usually, but I would make the chain the length from the base of the breast to the middle of the breast going right up the middle. As far as rows go make it as many rows as you need to fit!
Chain one after the last single crochet stitch then snippety snip off the yarn. 😊 (that's whats worked for me as a beginner... I'm sure there are other ways to end it )
I made my first bralette yesterday and the cups didn't go right, the centre on both were very pointy and didn't look anything like yours even though I did the exact steps you did
Hello hello, I haven't found any measurements yet but going by her +2 increments for each cup size with A being 10 chains to start, I would say H is 24 chains, maybe? I'm currently making a J cup with that logic, but you may need to adjust. as for rows, I'm going to work the same number of rows as I have for chains made at the start so 24 chains would be 24 rows. The beauty of starting off with more rows is that if it seems too big you can always rip out a few rows and see if you like that sizing more. A little further down in the comments Kelsie mentions measuring from the base of the breast to the middle of the breast going up the middle to get your base chain length, and just trying to work as many rows as you need to fit the width. Wishing you the best of luck! Hopefully you won't have to test too much.
Hey there! I would definitely utilize stitch markers at the corners to make sure you are getting the right number of stitches each time you do a row, or you can count stitches :)
Hi Kelsie, I followed your tuto but I wonder why my bra cup is not streight but triangle at the bottom....🤔 do you have any idea? Thanks for your help!
Most likely you’re skipping stitches somewhere! When you’re doing your rows it would help to count the stitches and make sure that you have 2 more each row

How did you finish the cup? Like tie it off
If the sizes aren't working for you, I recommend measuring from the base of your boob to the middle of the nipple and chain until it reaches that length. I struggled with this for a while and this worked great!

I'll tell you how it goes I swear I'm terrified of bra cups since they take the longest for me and it never turns out right it turns out "flat"
I guess we’ll never know
@@chisisthataweed526 fr
It not suppose to be flat ? It’s a cup
This was such a good video it was short, quick, and easy, great for beginners. This helped me so much thank you.❤I love your channel😊
Hello! I’m a beginner crocher lol but I was wondering how to get the bottom of the the cup to stay straight? Mine seems to curve up a bit.
When I started mine would curve because I was accidentally skipping stitches at the bottom of my cup. You could use stitch markers at the ends or count to make sure that’s not the problem! Hope that helped :)
Another thing I realized makes my project curve and look rounder is pulling too tight and putting too much tension in the stitches
clean and clear ! thank you ! i made a top for my friend and she loves it ! could have not done it without you !
I learned so much from you. You got a new subscriber here!!! Tysm! ❤️❤️❤️
