From Doris Chan’s new pattern line, DJC2, a tween girl party skirt, in Girl sizes 6-16, Junior sizes 0-5. Includes stitch symbol diagrams, complete instructions for two gauges.

Given that a girl’s mood can shift in a heartbeat and that kids grow like weeds, with this skirt it’s easy to keep up with the inevitable changes. You never have to worry that she will outgrow the skirt before you’ve even finished crocheting it. The Birthday Girl is quick enough to make and uses a small enough amount of yarn that you can crank out skirts in colors to suit all her personalities. The design offers an easy-fitting style, with a stretchy adjustable waist and simple alterations for length, so she never has to be without her favorite outfit no matter how many inches she shoots up this year.
