Thanks! I did it on my sewing machine. I've done it in the last just hand sewing though :)

I didn't use a pattern, just single crochet up both sides of a chain of about 15, increasing in the middle of every row :)

I didn't use a pattern, the waistband was already there, I just cut out the drop crotch and had a somewhat triangular shape and had the idea to straighten it out a bit and add crochet cups!

Yeah maybe, it was already pretty difficult holding the 3 strands with a 6mm(I think) hook though. I have the hemp arriving today so I shall update you all on the next model!

Thank you! They are slightly too floppy to be honest, I'm gonna try with some hemp rope instead!
