Materials Needed:

Crochet hook
Yarn
Pattern shop links (mentioned in the video description for a written pattern)

Pattern Instructions:

Base Chain:

Start by making a slip knot.
Chain 15. This beginning chain is suitable for all sizes.

Row 1:

Start on the sixth chain from the hook and work a shell stitch.

To make a shell stitch: 2 double crochet, chain 1, 2 double crochet in the same chain.
Skip two chains and work a double crochet in the next chain - this will be your first post.
Skip another two chains and work another shell stitch in the next chain.
Finish with a skip of two chains and a double crochet in the very last chain.

Row 2:

Begin with chain 2 (which counts as the first double crochet), flip your work.
Work a shell stitch in the first chain-one space.
Work a front post double crochet in the post from the previous row.
Finish with a double crochet in the chain space from the previous row.

After Rows 3 to 13:

Alternate Row 2’s pattern by changing the front post double crochet to a back post double crochet every other row.
Continue with this pattern, ending on an odd row.

Row 14 (Increase Start):

Chain 2, flip your work.
Make a shell in the first chain-one space.
Work a front post V-stitch (front post double crochet, chain 1, front post double crochet) in the next post.
Continue with a shell stitch and a double crochet in the final chain-one space.

Rows 15 to 20:

Alternate between back post double crochet and front post V-stitches, with shells in the chain-one spaces.
Ensure to end with a double crochet in the chain-two space from previous rows.

Final Rows for Front Panel:

For extra small to small sizes, end increases at Row 26, and continue with a repeated pattern from Row 24 and Row 25 for your desired length.
For larger sizes, continue increasing in the pattern of Row 22 and 23 until the width stretches to a quarter of your bust level circumference, then alternate with the pattern from Row 24 and 25.

Back Panel & Connecting Chains:

Work a mirror of the front panel adjustments for the back panel.
To connect panels, make chains as calculated based on your total shell row count from the front panel.
Begin connecting double crochet stitches and shell stitches across the chains to form the connecting piece between the front and back panels.

Final Edging & Straps:

Once panels are connected, work single crochet stitches around the entire piece for edging.
For straps, chain a length of 120 or more (to fit), slip stitch back along the chain, then continue with single crochet.
