        \n

        Step-by-Step Instructions:<\/h3>\n

        \u2705 STEP 1: Measure and Make Foundation Chain<\/h4>\n
          \n
        1. \n

          Measure your bust and divide by 2 \u2192 this is the width<\/strong> of one panel.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        2. \n

          Make a foundation chain<\/strong> that matches that measurement in inches.<\/p>\n

            \n
          • \n

            Example: For 40″ bust, half = 20″. If your gauge is 4 dc = 1 inch, then 20″ = 80 chains.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

          • \n

            Add 2 extra chains for turning.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            \u2705 STEP 2: Work the Body (Front & Back Panels)<\/h4>\n

            You\u2019ll make two identical rectangles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. \n

              Row 1: Double crochet<\/strong> in the 3rd chain from hook and across. Turn.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            2. \n

              Row 2: Ch 2, dc across. Repeat until the panel is the desired length<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

                \n
              • \n

                Add a shell stitch row<\/strong> every 5th row for beauty (optional).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

              • \n

                Make two rectangles this way (front and back).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                2. \n

                  On the last 4\u20135 inches before you reach the top, leave a gap in the middle:<\/p>\n

                    \n
                  • \n

                    Crochet across for left shoulder<\/strong>, skip stitches in the middle (neck opening), and crochet right shoulder.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

                  • \n
