• 1.5 yards [1.4 meters] of 3/8”[1cm] swimwear wide elastic (for the straps) or fold over elastic.
• 1.5 yards [1.4 meters] of 1/2”[1.3cm] wide elastic (for the waistband on the top)
• 3/8”[9.5mm] Lingerie strap slides and rings set
OPTIONAL:

Fabric Recommendation:
The Twin Lakes Two Piece is designed for knit fabrics. You will need a fabric with 4 way stretch and at least 50% crosswise stretch. If you are making this as a swimsuit, you will need swim fabric and because the swimsuit is not fully lined you will want to make sure your fabric is opaque.
