My new, homemade crochet bikini

I am not really a big fan of crochet bikinies, but I was really bored in the winter-break so I thought I could give it a try. It might be a sign that I am tired of snow, and I really am. You might be one of those ski-lovers, but I am and will always be a beach-lover. Right now I could almost kill for a week under the sun. Spring-summer fashion is also much more fun then winter. I am tired of layering, coats and big boots. So are you a winter or a summer person? My mum has this huge handcraft-book from the 70's, and they had a very simple recipe on how to make a bikini. I didn't want that white see-through thing or the beige surf style. I think black and cream is much more sofisticated. The lace makes it more special and a bit more feminine. What do you think?
