Sarah Bralette Pattern

Just in time for the warm temps...summer nights...music fests, let's get you 
started right away on an easy bralette!

And bonus...you can wear it in the water and wash it very easily.

I've made so many bralettes out of Bernat Home Dec Yarn - the texture, the flexibility...makes it the best choice for the most comfortable summer piece!

Check out all the awesome colours and grab some skeins by clicking HERE on the brand new Yarnspirations website.

Quick notes before you start:
-this can be adjusted easily to fit your cup size - when you start: chain less for smaller cup, chain more for a larger cup
-the body can be longer, shorter, or wider by less or more Foundation Treble Crochets to begin with and by adding more rows to the body.
-Bernat Home Dec yarn does stretch, so keep that in mind when you deciding if you want to adjust size
-I've made many bralettes for large cup sizes (DD - J), make sure to create 2 straps on each cup for extra support
-I've included a TON of pictures below, hope they help, leave a comment and ask me questions anytime!

Here we go!
