The Faye Swimsuit PDF sewing pattern by Closet Core Patterns combines clean, modern lines with versatile swimwear options. Fully lined and designed with a scoop neckline and slightly cheeky cut, Faye lets you sew bikinis or a classic one-piece swimsuit from a single pattern.

Choose from three different views: a high-waisted bikini with straight straps, a sporty low-rise bikini with a strappy back and supportive underbust band, or a sleek one-piece swimsuit with a deep scoop back and adjustable straps.
