- Knit swimwear (100% wool) sounds cool (no seams?) https://threedresses.org/2013/05/03/swimwear-inspiration-30s/ But : 1) Does it chafe? 2) How difficult to dry is it? 3) examples given do not protect from the sun (much)
- do you need to preshrink or prewash any of the fabric?.. /in case the fabric shrinks dramatically/ | And included a link earlier http://www.sewmamasew.com/blog2/june2011/SwimSuitPattern2.pdf
- Nice and simple http://www.mesewcrazy.com/2013/06/womens-rash-guard-shirt.html ← Do note though that "usually" swimsuits have lining (aka interior fabric), besides outer visible fabric (no idea why, besides "modesty aka non-transparency")
- Old pattern for swimsuit-swimdress https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/5c/6d/bf/5c6dbf51f8b91e4a1597dfa022989200.jpg Incomplete? :|
- Well-documented long-sleeve http://www.itsalwaysautumn.com/2016/02/15/long-sleeve-raglan-sweatshirt-free-pattern.html ← entirely not swimsuit, but together with abovementioned http://www.mesewcrazy.com/2013/06/womens-rash-guard-shirt.html should give a nice draft
- Very basic bikini http://www.mesewcrazy.com/2015/08/halter-and-high-waist-bikini-diy.html ← If it can be called a pattern
- http://images.patternreview.com/sewing/patterns/jalie/charts/3135chart.jpg
- http://sewing.patternreview.com/Patterns/50428 Looks nice, but requires good mathematical imagination to make the pattern actually useful.
- http://www.ralphpink.com/free-basic-blocks/ <-- Useful.
- http://www.ralphpink.com/free-sewing-patterns/free-fashion-patterns/ Ellsa swimsuit is definitely something to take a look at. A long look.
