Breakwater is a sleek, strappy swimsuit with an open front and a modern, playful feel. This pattern includes two options: View A is a one piece with bold front and back cutouts, and View B is a coordinating two piece with a separate top and bottoms. The top features angled front panels, a narrow elasticated strap, and an open back. The front panels can slide along the strap so you can customize the positioning and fit! The strap can be secured at the back or tied behind the neck. The bottoms feature a high-cut leg line and cheeky back coverage. Swim elastic is used to finish the edges for a secure fit. Whether you’re lounging by the pool, heading to the beach, or playing in the waves, Breakwater is ready for sunny days and salty swims!

Pattern Details

Sewing Level: Advanced Beginner

Recommended Fabrics:
Swimwear stretch knits with at least 50% stretch horizontally and vertically (see stretch chart on page 3). Look for nylon or polyester knits with high spandex content. You may want to look for chlorine resistant fabrics for swimming pools and/or fabrics with a UPF rating over 30 for sun protection.

Swimwear lining provides extra comfort and coverage in your swimwear. It is optional but recommended. Look for stretchy nylon or polyester fabric specifically labeled as swimwear or swimsuit lining. You can also line Breakwater in lightweight power net or firm power mesh for more support.
