Cord – Using the crochet hook, make a cord of 3 ch.; Turn back, insert the hook into the 2nd ch., pull up a loop, and leave it on the hook (you now have 2 loops on the hook). Insert the hook into the 3rd ch., pull up a loop, and leave it on the hook (you now have 3 loops on the hook). Without turning the work, drop the last 3 loops from the hook and hold them firmly to prevent unraveling. Make a ch. with the remaining loop on the hook, then insert the hook into the 1st dropped loop, pull up a loop, and leave it on the hook (2 loops on the hook). Insert the hook into the 2nd dropped loop, pull up a loop, and leave it on the hook (3 loops on the hook). Repeat from to until the desired length is reached. Once finished, pull the yarn through all 3 loops on the hook and fasten off. Fantasy Stitch: follow the charts. Relief Ribbing: follow the chart. Bottoms – Front/Back: follow the corresponding chart. Top: follow the chart.

Execution
Bottoms – Front – Make a foundation chain of 22 sts. + 3 ch. to turn, and work the front of the bottom following the corresponding chart. Once the chart is complete, fasten off. Bottoms – Back – Use the same foundation chain from the front part and work the back part following the corresponding chart. Once the chart is complete, make a chain of 72 sts. on each side and attach it to the last row of the front. Next, work in rounds in fantasy st. following the chart, repeating from to all the way around (68x). At 4.75 in (12 cm) from the beginning of the fantasy st., work 8 rows in ribbing following the chart, then fasten off. Top – Work directly into the ring. Make a round of 42 sc. on half of the ring, then work the top following the chart. Once the chart is complete, continue from to for 17 more rows (the tie for the back) and fasten off. Make the other side the same way.
Finishing – Bottoms – Work 3 rounds of sc. around the leg openings of the bottoms and fasten off. Line the bottoms. Top – Work one round of sc. around each cup of the top and fasten off. Cord – Make a cord following the instructions with a length of 43 inch (110 cm) and fasten off. Fold the cord in half and attach it to the ring. Pass the folded cord between the two cups, then thread both ends through the loop created by the fold and pull to secure, keeping both ends equal in length. Line the cups.
