My sis mentioned that she wanted a white knit bikini swimsuit. Haha. I think she saw barbie with something like this. So, her birthday is April 8th and I was thinking I should knit one up for her birthday. But, the only pattern I have is an intarsia design which #1 I can't do and #2 that's not exactly what she wants. So, I'm wondering if anyone knows of a free bikini swimsuit pattern that is very easy (I need it easy so I can get it done in time! Haha) And something that has an adjustment of sized for the cup size because I'm not all that sure what cup size she is right now. She was a C, but she lost a lot of weight so she could be a B right now. I'll have to find a subtle way of asking her. Haha. So, any help out there?

I think a knit bikini would be very cute but I just dont understand how you would keep everything hidden. Wouldnt you expose things when it got wet and the yarn relaxed? Would you make a liner underneath?

Try burdastyledotcom, the site has various free patterns not sure if you'll find what you are looking for.

all of the yarn sites have free patterns and there is also freepatterns that you can look up , have to register but is free. Many of them are sorted by the type of pattern you are looking for. I am sure with all the free patterns out there, you should be able to find one. Caron, Lion Brand, and several others have free patterns. Good luck. If you use a stretchy type yarn, it might not matter as much on the cup size.
