Hi knitters! Back in my twenties and thirties, I used to sew every piece of clothing I wore myself, and making skirts was my specialty. I’ve probably sewn and worn every kind of skirt that was popular back then. Nowadays I may no longer sew as I used to, but I still have passion for skirt making. That’s why when I saw this ‘mosaic’ yarn at the store, I knew I had to make one. My debut knitted skirt design is simple, with bold lines, and a clear statement. It is an easy pattern, made with only knit and purl stitches, and the length is easily customizable to be as long or short as you prefer. So here is a quick winter project for you that you can finish in a day or two. If this skirt design does well, I’m planning to make more, perhaps longer and flowy-er ones, using thinner types of yarn, but non the less simple and easy to make. So, stay tuned to all my future projects, especially the matching crop top that I’m working on right now. Happy holidays everyone!
