Time for some thrilling heroics

    Okay I'm ready to start.  We will start with Jayne hat (bra cup) #1:
Let's start with a measurement.  take a tape measure or a piece of yarn.  Starting from the center of nipple measure to the rib under the breast (this can be done with or with a bra.depending on if you plan to wear under it. though I did my measurement over the bra and did not wear a bra under it and it did just fine.
Take your string  (or write down your measurement)  then divide by 3.  This is the way we can keep track how much is hat is gold and how much is the orange (carrot color).  2/3 is gold and 1/3 is orange.  So no matter how big or small you are you can size the bra to your figure.  (feel free to to add or subtract to the measurement if you want more or less coverage.  but always keep the ratio 2/3 to 1/3 with the colors.)
  
ch = chain
hdc= half double crochet
sc= single crochet
next post will have the instructions for the cups...

The yarn!

I am using worsted weight yarn. Red heart colors  carrot, gold and I wanted ranch red but had to settle for the cherry.  But you don't have to use the brand or colors I use.  It was what I could get a hold of at time.
