Stuff very lightly (and not all the way to the top), flatten the tops, and attach to body. I sew them on between rows 34 and 35.
Bikini Top
The pattern will be very different depending on what yarn and hook you use as well as stuffing preferences... But I chain to the desired length (make sure it wraps around the doll JUST BARELY. It will grow a little as you crochet into it) and add SC or HDC rows to desired length. I did 4. Then sew it up! Then I use a piece of yarn and connect it to the middle front and tie in the back like an actual swim suit top!
