Aurora Skirt is an airy skirt with a ruffled hem at the bottom of the skirt which makes it ekstra elegant. The skirt is knitted with two yarns held together, one lace weight (mohair) and one fingering weight (e.g. sock yarn). Knitting with sock yarn makes the skirt extra durable/wear resistant but you can also choose to knit the skirt with 100% wool if that is your preference. The skirt is knitted in the round, top-down and with German Short Rows, which makes the backside of the skirt longer. Adjust the length as desired. The skirt on the photo is knitted in size S in Saga and Tilia by Filcolana in the colors 112 and 325.
