The written pattern of the skirt is base on your own body measurements. There will be no exact number of sts given nor number of rows, only examples so you will have an idea and you can decide how you want your skirt to look. This is you designing your own skirt, I know how can be overwhelming to be able to design and make your own garment, so here I am giving you the privilege to design your own Houndstooth Mini Skirt. Make this skirt in classic black and white or any colour you favour.

This skirt can be made in all sizes, from Children, Teens, to Adult.
This pattern is a beginner-intermediate level. Most part of the skirt is made with a pattern called Griddle Stitch. The Griddle Stitch is an easy stitch using a combination of basic beginner crochet stitches to create a textured project surface. The Griddle Stitch uses the single crochet and a double crochet stitch which gives the crochet project a really awesome look. If you can crochet those two stitches then you are good to go, plus you can follow along a video tutorial on youtube.
