Amaranth is an above the knee length skirt, knitted in the round from the top-down.
Its beautiful all over rib wave pattern creates intriguing texture. Together with the added elastic band at the waist, Amaranth becomes the perfect, easy to combine and comfy to wear winter skirt.
Intended to sit on the waist, this skirt will keep you nice and warm, which is a very important quality during the colder months.
A small amount of increases towards the hip gives a flattering shape and a little bit of extra space, while the stretchy bind off makes sure you could also run after your bus if you’d need to :)
